[Intro]
(Heavy, rhythmic percussion kicks in immediately—like a heart racing at 140 BPM. A sharp, digital glitch sound slides into a low, distorted cello note.)
[Verse 1]
Static in the wire
Smoke in the hall
I learned to breathe
Behind your wall
You taught me the grip
You taught me the strike
The shadow I chase
The ghost that I like
[Pre-Chorus]
(The beat drops out for a second, leaving only a haunting, high-pitched synth.)
Zero signal
Total blind
Your hands on my throat
Your ghost in my mind
One breath left
One code to break
I’ll give you everything
You want to take
[Chorus]
(The bass explodes back in—a wall of dark techno sound.)
Silent Protocol
Break the seal
Show me the wound
That won’t ever heal
Master of the blade
Lover of the lie
I’m the weapon you built
Just to watch it die
Silent Protocol
Pull me in
My favorite teacher
My favorite sin
[Verse 2]
Neon on the rain
Steel on the bone
You’re the only home
That I’ve ever known
A disciple of the dark
A student of the pain
I’m the lightning you caught
Now I’m pulling the chain
[Bridge]
(Half-time breakdown. The cello comes back, deep and mourning, over a slow, grinding industrial beat.)
You forged the steel
You sharpened the edge
Now you’re standing right there
On the side of the ledge
Say the word
And I’ll follow you down
In this digital hell
Where we both want to drown
[Chorus]
Silent Protocol
Break the seal
Show me the wound
That won’t ever heal
Master of the blade
Lover of the lie
I’m the weapon you built
Just to watch it die
[Outro]
(The music speeds up, getting more and more chaotic until it abruptly cuts to a single, echoing digital heartbeat.)
Code red.
System failure.
I’m yours.
