DATA CITY 〜Always Online, Never Alive〜

[Verse 1] Digital paradise Neon burning through the sky “Come with me tonight,” she said Beyond the pale blue light The man eating hamburgers alone Lovers walking side by side No one calls each other names Only numbers in their eyes [Pre-Chorus] Who were you before? More than a username? Every heartbeat feels delayed Inside this wired maze [Chorus] She took me to the data center Said “you could live forever” Do you have the proper credentials? While glowing cables wrapped together She took me to the server room Cold white lights erased the gloom Do we really feel at all? Or are we just connected tools? [Verse 2] City shadows made of code Every street a mirrored soul Perfect faces flood the feed But nobody says what they mean Notifications never sleep Silent crowds move endlessly Digital paradise burns bright Still I cannot escape the night [Pre-Chorus] Does somebody know your face? Not just the files you saved? Every promise slowly fades Into archived data waves [Chorus] She took me to the data center Said “memories last forever” Do you have the proper credentials? While endless wires pulse together She took me to the server room Stored emotions sealed in gloom Are we really still alive? Or just records left behind? [Bridge] Scrolling endlessly Searching endlessly Calling endlessly Inside DATA CITY [Final Chorus] She took me to the data center Said “there’s no need to remember” Every feeling turns to numbers Every dream becomes a server When a human disappears Money fades and power dies But your data still survives Inside the screens of those behind Even if the sky is fake I still want something real from you [Outro] DATA CITY Always online Never alive [instruments layer out] [final kick drum hit]
