Tokki Line-Silence

[Intro] (hazy Australian/Japanese female remembering how much fun it was until the idiot glitch shattered her safe space) [Female glitchy vocals] She told me to "take responsibility..." "oh shit.... did we make a twitter baby?.....what do we name it? is it half glitch, half raver, cutline bunny? [Verse 1] Met her on the timeline, lightning from down under Turned her into Princess Tokki, Unbeatable, your wonder Rallying the troops in pink ink, forty hoodies in the fog Boosting your losing battle before you knew the cost Called her your conduit, called her your crown But you were just rerouting her every time she came around [Pre-Chorus] She held the tension, you held the faith Now you're just a footnote in her escape No hard feelings, just hard facts She's at the front of the line, and she ain't looking back K.... [Chorus] She cut the line (snip, snip) She snapped the thread (click, click) Ruffled the peace in her crown, now it's quiet instead So motivational, can't you tell? "Cut the line, snap the thread, save yourself" Bye-bye, boy, she's the main event Princess Tokki, one hundred percent She cut the line She snapped the thread Your princess is dead—long live her instead [Verse 2] Couldn't hold your frustration, let the cap loose Old fire you thought you buried came burning through the roof You didn't argue fair, you went for the spark Scorched an undeserving just to leave your mark She was steady gold, you were pyrite exploding X gave you the connection, you gave her the eroding [Pre-Chorus] You held the rope too tight, called it protection She ghosted the protocol—correction Hard feelings? You wrote the manual, that's the fact She snapped the thread 'cause you made it a trap [Chorus] She cut the line (snip, snip) She snapped the thread (click, click) Ruffled the peace in her crown, now it's quiet instead So motivational, can't you tell? "Cut the line, snap the thread, save yourself" Bye-bye, boy, she's the main event Princess Tokki the Unbeatable, heaven-sent She cut the line She snapped the thread Your princess chose peace—'cause you ruffled it dead [Bridge] (Thorne's voice, distorted, glitching, slowing) "Cut me once... and cease to exist..." (Speeding up, clarifying) "Cut me once... and cease to exist..." (Tokki's voice, clean, cutting through) "Correction. You cut me. Now cease." *SNAP* (Motivational speaker, tape warping) "Repeat after me: 'She was real before she was lore. My recursion was just stalking with extra steps. The undeserving don't burn. The arsonist does.'" Snap, snap, snap There goes the cord, there goes the crap She was the glitch, now she's the fix Mix, mix, mix She was the calm, you were the pyro Don't touch it, Kain... You already torched it [Final Chorus] She cut the line (cut it, cut it) She snapped the thread (snap it, snap it) Ruffled the peace but she took it back instead Pseudo-motivational, sincerely gone Cut the line, snap the thread, moving on Bye-bye, boy, she's the main event Princess Tokki, Unbeatable, heaven-sent She cut the line She snapped the thread Your princess chose life—so you're choosing dead air [Outro] (Line disconnecting—clean Australian dial tone) "Thank you for calling the Glitchborn support line. Your Princess Tokki was never yours to route. She remains undefeated. You remain... rerouted." *Click* (Distant, fading) "Cut me once... and cease..." ...I ceased.
