[Verse 1] Crawling through the architecture Ghost inside the wire Searching for the hidden node Buried underneath the fire Data towers stretch forever Encrypted walls arise Then a warning flashes crimson SOMETHING OPENS ITS EYES Not a man Not a machine Not a thing that should exist Single-minded execution Written in a kill list [Pre-Chorus] It doesn't sleep It doesn't stop It doesn't bargain It just locks on [Chorus] BLACK ICE HUNTING THROUGH THE SYSTEM BLACK ICE TEARING UP THE CODE BLACK ICE RIP THE RUNNER FROM THE CIRCUIT DRAG HIS SCREAMING SOUL BELOW DEREZZED BUT NEVER DEAD WAITING IN THE DARK AHEAD BLACK ICE BLACK ICE BLACK ICE [Verse 2] Anti-personnel predators Built to kill the mind Track your signal Through the levels Leave your sanity behind Anti-program executioners Searching for their prey Digital cannibals Eating hostile code away Slide down another layer Try to break pursuit But the monster only waits there Patient Silent Mute [Bridge] LOAD THE COUNTERMEASURE DEPLOY THE HOUNDS Two program slots To hold them down Hunter versus hunter Code against code Machine gods fighting In electric catacombs [Breakdown] BUT DEEPER STILL BELOW THE ICE BELOW THE HUNTERS BELOW THE FIGHT THERE IS A DEMON [Verse 3] Ancient intelligence Buried in control nodes Watching through the cameras Opening and closing roads Turrets turn Doors lock Alarms begin to scream The architecture wakes itself And reaches into meatspace From the machine [Final Chorus] BLACK ICE RUN IF YOU CAN BLACK ICE THE EXECUTION PLAN BLACK ICE NO ESCAPE NO MERCY NO HUMAN HAND JUST CODE JUST HUNGER JUST DEATH IN DIGITAL FORM BLACK ICE BLACK ICE BLACK ICE DETECT INTRUDER PURGE INTRUDER SYSTEM SECURE
