[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=alzubnG733k] [Verse] Hover-carts hum down Café Row, foam art in my cup Billboards flaunt tomorrow’s shoes, lovers soaking sun-up But static threads the headline crawl—border beacons flare I taste the shift beneath the music floating in the air [Pre-Chorus] Heartbeat drums against my chest Something vast is being pressed [Chorus] I’m standing on the edge of the void rift Comfort glitters, yet the plates still drift If the skyline splits tonight in a thundered shift I’ll step forward, not retreat from the void rift [Verse] I trade those late-show tickets for a carbon pulse-blade Grip locks firm—cold resolve I’ve made Friends still laugh beneath the lights; their worth ignites my mind This fragile, flawed, electric life is why I’ll choose to fight [Pre-Chorus] I’ve memorised these city songs And I won’t let them fade to wrong Chorus I’m standing on the edge of the void rift Neon kingdoms that I won’t let drift If the skyline splits tonight in a thundered shift I’ll be armor for the dreams on the void rift [Bridge] Steel can rust, and treaties fall Values live when we stand tall History turns on silent vows— I speak mine, right here, right now [Final Chorus] I’m done with waiting on the void rift Pulse aligned to duty’s lift If I burn, then let it brand this gift: A world still shining at the void rift [Outro] Sirens bloom my visor clears One last sip before it tears [Soft Chorus Reprise (half-tempo, whispered echo)] I’m standing on the edge of the void rift Comfort glitters, yet the plates still drift If the skyline splits tonight in a thundered shift I’ll step forward, not retreat from the void rift [End]
