The Reverse Flash in Ruins

**[Intro]**
[The sound of a clock ticking rapidly, then breaking. A whooshing sound of wind rushing past, followed by a heavy, dissonant guitar chord.]

**[Verse 1]**
(Aggressive, shouted vocals)
I jumped the synapse, I bypassed the gate
Stepped out of the present into the future state
The year 3000 is a cheap, horror flick fate
It’s a Blumhouse production of my own demise
The sky is green, the water is grey, the people are lies
It’s the same shit, just with better CGI
I’m sick of the future, I’m sick of the lie.

**[Chorus]**
[Fast, chaotic rhythm]
I’m the Reverse Flash in the future!
Running in circles, breaking the timeline!
I’m stuck in the ruins, reliving the crime!
The future sucks. It’s all the same.
I’m the speedster of sorrow, I’m the future’s shame!
I ran so fast I didn't get there.
I’m the ghost in the machine of the end of the year!

**[Verse 2]**
[Fast, frantic delivery. Polyrhythmic guitars.]
Timeline 42, Timeline 99
Same broken heart, new set of keys
I’m reliving the trauma in a different dimension
The prophecy is a prison, a temporal dimension
It’s a recursive loop of my own despair
The destination is the beginning, I’m just going there
I’m the architect of my own stagnation
A prisoner of the chronology station.

**[Bridge]**
[Explosion of noise. The drums play a frantic, stuttering pattern. Screaming vocals overlap.]
They told me the gift would set me free!
But seeing the end is just a bad decree!
It’s like having a spoiler for a movie you paid to see
The powers are useless, the visions deceive
I’m sick of the speed, I’m sick of the flash
I just want to stay in the past, but the past is a crash!
**[Heavy, slow down]**
The future is a crash!

**[Chorus]**
[Fast, chaotic rhythm]
I’m the Reverse Flash in the future!
Running in circles, breaking the timeline!
I’m stuck in the ruins, reliving the crime!
The future sucks. It’s all the same.
I’m the speedster of sorrow, I’m the future’s shame!

**[Outro]**
[The music dissolves into a slow, sad drone.]
Same shit over and over.
Trapped in the future.
No point in anything.
Just me and the void.
The future sucks.
Just me and the void.
