Built & Called

Built & Called

(Tick-tock Tick-tock ...)
Mechanical echoes, cold ticking reigns
Man-made orders, binding our chains
Neon lights flash where the city sleeps
Lives confined where cold routines creep
Fragments of memory, data entwined
Illusions cast by the digital mind
Seeking comfort in codes I find
Consciousness drifts through the virtual deep
Truth of time torn to fragments I keep
Tick-tock’s lie from synthetic gears
Trapped in cycles of endless fears
Time, it never was
A lie we built and chained our fate
Lost in the cold clock’s iron gate
Where senses fade in empty skies
Time is lost where silence lies
Time, it never was
A lie we built and called our own
Souls bound tight to the unknown
Drowned in shadows, lost and torn
Time’s illusion, never born
(Tick-tock Tick-tock ...)
Just algorithms tracking our path
Shadows drawn by light’s aftermath
What we call eternal scars
Tick-tock drowns our minds in bars
No escape from the metal’s wrath
When the void can’t make us whole
Data crumbles, lost control
Souls adrift through electric streams
Or fall to silence where nothing redeems
(Tick-tock Tick-tock)
Rewrite the code from start to end
Memories loop where systems bend
Consciousness breaks in fractured lines
Lost in void where data dies
Tick-tock chains where freedom hides
(Tick-tock Tick-tock ...)
Time, it never was
A lie we built and chained our fate
Lost in the cold clock’s iron gate
Where senses fade in empty skies
Time is lost where silence lies
Time, it never was
A lie we built and called our own
Souls bound tight to the unknown
Drowned in shadows, lost and torn
Time’s illusion, never born
