[Intro - Slow, foreboding riff] Metal claws where hands once gripped, Hollow eyes where light has slipped. Steel replaces fragile bone, Human touch, forever disowned. [Verse - Heavy and desolate] Augmentations tear the soul, Pieces lost to make them whole. Voices scream, a fractured mind, In chrome and wires, humanity confined. [Chorus - Melodic and haunting] Cybernetic decay, the price we pay, Flesh eroded, shadows betray. The cost of steel, too much to bear, Humanity fades, no soul to repair. [Break - Dissonant guitar solo, mournful tone] [Verse 2 - Guttural and slow] Friends consumed by the shining blade, Flesh to machine, their lives betrayed. Cyberpsychosis grips their frame, Lost in circuits, lost to the flame. [Bridge - Building dread] The promise of strength, a siren’s call, Yet piece by piece, they lose it all. No heart, no soul, just cold design, In the machine, no life aligns. [Chorus - Reprise with heavier distortion] Cybernetic decay, the price we pay, Flesh eroded, shadows betray. The cost of steel, too much to bear, Humanity fades, no soul to repair. [Outro - Dying notes, fading into silence] In the mirror, a stranger’s gaze, The remnants of life, lost in a haze. Augmented dreams, a hollow way, All that’s left is cybernetic decay. [End]
