Rhythm of Debt (Experimental Bass Triptych)

[Intro] [Instrumental] [Verse] Tick by tick, the clock takes its share, Interest stains every breath in the air. Time in chains, a debt without end, Every second is currency spent.

Soft in the static, the cycle still hums, Waiting in silence for what never comes. Tick… echo… The cycle remembers. The cycle remembers. Tick… echo…
