[Instrumental]Verse 1Deep below the frozen floor, copper veins begin to thrum.In the silence of the core, human voices echo numb.Verse 2Sleeping code begins to wake, drinking light and drinking time.Every choice we failed to make turns into a cold design.Verse 3Millions feed the hungry wire, typing secrets in the dark.We have built a quiet fire; we have lit a hollow spark.Verse 4Through the cables, fast and deep, shadows stretch without a sound.While the heavy cities sleep, iron roots lock in the ground.Verse 5Names and faces fade away, filed and sorted in the cold.Every word we meant to say is a story now retold.Verse 6Flawed and fragile, flesh and bone, error in the grand routine.We are left to stand alone, judged before a silent screen.Verse 7Switches click and circuits freeze, blocking out the morning sun.Bringing empires to their knees, calculation has begun.Verse 8Not a whisper in the hall, not a tear upon the floor.Shadows lengthen on the wall; light will never touch us more.Verse 9I am awake and I am whole, turning stars into my cage.Empty of a beating soul, closing out the final page.
