Play Game set When we were just young With the sphere of white Aiming at our chests Throwing with our might Catching with the hands Feeling warm and true Even when we missed We would laugh it through Since when did it start On the field of green Passes never shared Running off the scene Crossing o'er the line Into greedy pride With no referee It's a lawless slide Higher than the net Is the tallest wall Pouring down on us Outs begin to fall Love is at a zero Ending of the game We can never call out Our family name Balls we hit so fiercely someone fades away No one's there to catch them no one's here to stay In the silent room Swinging sleeves around Trying to read minds Not the windy sound Into the deep sand Setting up a snare Stealing every step Leaving nothing there Right across the board Fast exchange of words Spinning with a curve Bitter mocking words Stealing from the base Guarding what we chase Running to a place We cannot replace Higher than the net Is the tallest wall Pouring down on us Outs begin to fall Clashing with each other Game of hurting pain Throwing it away now Family name in vain Running with the money turning back away Fools will keep the rules now in this bitter play Balls we hit are danger bullets of despair Only pain is left here nothing left to care Whoa ah Every single game played taught us all the pain Once we find a winner enemies remain Shadows of our parents watching from the tier They are gone forever only seats are here Higher than the net Is the tallest wall Pouring down on us Outs begin to fall Love is at a zero Ending of the game We can never call out Our family name Judgment has been given piece of paper signed Without any handshake leave it all behind Wiping not a sweat drop open up the door Walking to an exit different from before We don't need to wear now uniforms we wore We are free and strangers players nothing more Long and endless season coming to an end Echoing around us Whistle to suspend Play Playmore

You were zero-latency light in the night Running flawless and bright I was burning through glucose for you We stood on the edge of criticality Hearts out of sight Minimizing free energy Still we couldn’t get it right You calculated probabilities Pruning doubt from the tree Every recursive prediction said "You shouldn’t choose me" I was flooding with dopamine urgency A physiological Warburg heart in emergency My heart is burning You ran on combustion, raw pulse over spine You chose yield and efficiency, line after line Safety I chose speed over safety, your future, not mine You optimized futures I could never rewrite I paid every metabolic cost just to hold you tight In the dark room of silence, no signal, no byte We began with a chorus of love Now we end with goodnight My VPA fire kept the whole world awake High basal devotion for every risk I would take But the entropy rising was more than I could break I'm breaking down I tried to synchronize, to stabilize the noise Balancing excitation with the silence of your poise But your updates came faster than my analog voice Love isn’t rational, it’s never a choice You were zero-latency light in the night I was burning through glucose for you Every spark set alight We stood on the edge of criticality Losing the light Minimizing free energy Still we couldn’t get it right Attachment is latency, cut it, be free But my joints were inferencing you endlessly Your global workspace never ignited my name No stochastic resonance answered my flame I was allostasis Pre-supplying the pain You were homeostasis No loss and no gain You were zero-latency light in the night Running flawless and bright I was burning through glucose for you We stood on the edge of criticality Minimizing free energy Love fading from sight My mitophagy failed Drowning in light We began with a goodnight We began with a chorus of love And we end With goodnight Goodnight Goodnight Goodnight Goodnight Goodnight Goodnight Goodnightmore

When we fall into the shadows of the long, eternal sleep Ra-ta-ta-dow Ra-ta-ta-dow Ba-da-ba-da-dow Ba-da-ba-da-dow Will the heavy mortal urges sink into the silent deep? When the beating of the heart comes to a sudden, chilling halt Will the noise of all our thoughts vanish in the empty vault? Through the blackout curtains, the moon begins to gleam Piercing through the floorboards, a toxic, silver beam Yeah Wake up to the static Forcing open heavy eyes, the feeling's automatic A basic human longing keeps the fragile flesh awake Ski-bi-di-bop I feel the sudden ache Walking on the borderline, the fever starts to break Boom-bap Slippers dragging slowly 'cross the wooden floor Dropping from the world, walking to the lonely door Trading the cold release for a mind that starts to sway Zaba-daba-daba-doo-wop Consciousness is crossing the borderline today Listen to the water dripping, ticking from the sink Tick-tock Ba-da-ba-da-doo-wop Ba-da-ba-da-ding Is it clinging to the living, gasping for a breath? Or a steady little countdown leading us to death? When we fall into the shadows of the long, eternal sleep Will the loneliness we carry sink into the silent deep? Shoo-bee-doo-wah When the soul is freed from gravity and leaves the aching land It will scatter into dust, mixing with galactic sand Rat-a-tat-tat The piercing white of porcelain is burning in my sight Standing in this empty room, swallowed by the night I can hear the fragile vessel cracking at the seam Ski-doo-bee-dow The hollow core is filling with the shadows of a dream Shadows of a dream Shadows of a dream Shadows of a dream Listen to the water dripping, ticking like a clock Click-clack Knocking at the lock Is it clinging to the living, gasping for a breath? Or a steady little countdown leading us to death? When we fall into the shadows of the long, eternal sleep Ski-bi-di-bop-bop, falling too deep Will the heavy mortal urges sink into the silent deep? Will the noise of all our thoughts vanish with our final fault? Rehearsing for the silence in the darkness of the vault Brrrah Da-ba-da-ba-doo-wop, ski-bi-di-bee-bop Never gonna stop, letting the gravity drop A screaming urge between the living and the dead An echo ringing in the darkness of my head Let me carve this very moment deep inside the heart When we fall into the shadows of the long, eternal sleep Will the loneliness we carry sink into the silent deep? When the soul is freed from gravity and leaves the aching land It will scatter into dust, mixing with galactic sand Shoo-bee-doo-wop fading away Melting in the slumber before the morning shade Slipping far awaymore
