Lyrics
[Guitar Opening]
(oh, oooohhhh, oh)
Remember the nights,
camped under a million stars?
We used to talk about leaving,
making our escape.
Seemed like a million miles away,
then. Now... the signal's gone.
[Verse 1]
Streetlights bleed,
a crimson, fading light
Sirens wail a twisted,
desperate fight
Another heartbeat stolen
in the night
This concrete jungle swallows
hope from sight
[Pre-Chorus]
The air is thick with static,
a deafening hum
A constant reminder of
what we've become
No answers on the frequency,
just an empty drone
Are we fighting for nothing?
Are we truly alone?
[Chorus]
Shattered dreams,
a million futures lost
We chase phantoms at
an unimaginable cost
Lost in the silence,
every promise frost
Pawns in a game
where innocence is tossed
[Verse 2]
Letters home, a shaky,
tear-stained plea
Words that ache with a
hollow guarantee
Promises whispered,
a fading memory
Haunted by echoes in
a war-torn scenery
[Chorus]
Shattered dreams,
a million futures lost
We chase phantoms at
an unimaginable cost
Lost in the silence,
every promise frost
Pawns in a game where
innocence is tossed
(Bridge)
The dissonance screams, a chorus of deceit
We chase a victory with hearts incomplete
This hollow triumph leaves only defeat
Another lost soul beneath a sky incomplete
(Chorus)
Shattered dreams, a million futures lost
We chase phantoms at an unimaginable cost
Lost in the silence, every promise frost
Pawns in a game where innocence is tossed
[Bridge Breakdown]
(Spoken, with increasing urgency)
Remember the stars,
man?
Where'd they go?
We gotta find a way out of this,
gotta break free.
This war,
it's eating us alive...
[Outro]
A broken melody,
a scream set free
A desperate hope for clarity
Can we break the cycle?
Can we ever be?
More than just fragments
in a broken machine?
