[Instrumental long intro]

[Vers]
Holograms burn on my eyelids
City hums like a bad dream
Blood in the cracks of my knuckles
Chrome where my skin used to be
You said we'd walk out together
I said I'd hack us a way
Now your jacket hangs from a nail
Like it’s staring
Like it knows I’m late
You said meet you at the overpass
Rain on chrome
Streaming past your face
Holo-ads flicker on your jacket glass
Your eyes look tired
Like you've lost the race
You light a smoke with a shaking hand
City hum chewing up our plans
You say
"All this metal
All this shine
But the one thing I wanted never came in time".

[Chorus]
Time is running out
All these broken promises surround me
I keep selling pieces of my soul
Just to buy one more heartbeat
If I make it through this night
Will there be anything left to save?
Time is running out
And I'm the one who gave it away
Time is running out
I can feel it pulling
Like a countdown in my chest
Every breath I’m losing
If I sell my soul again
Will it even matter now?
You were the only thing
That slowed this city down
And time is running out.

[Instrumental long solo]

[Verse 2]
Jackie's ghost still whispers
In every dark alley way
Panam's eyes still haunt me
Every single day
Got no future waiting
Just a fading light
Is this my final fight
As the countdown drowns me out (woah)
Elevator glass shows a stranger
Same scars
But the eyes are wrong
Laughter stuck deep in my throat now
Used to choke on your favorite songs
Every mission
Every number
Another ghost on my back
I can hear you curse in the silence
“Choomba
Don’t you dare fade to black”.

[Instrumental long solo]

[Verse 3]
Night City neon
Bleeds into my brain
Got this chip inside me
Driving me insane
Every cybernetic heartbeat
A ticking time bomb low
Where does a legend go
If I burn out tonight
Keep the jacket
Keep the chain
Tell the moon about the merc
Who kept losing to his brain
If the city says I’m gone
Don’t believe a word it speaks
You can find me in the static
Between your heartbeats (yeah).

[Instrumental long solo]

[Outro]
If I flatline here
Would you hear it?
(hey)
Signal in the dark
Would you clear it?
I traded my soul for a second chance
Now the countdown’s carved in my implants.

[Instrumental long solo]
