Like symbols in their code
They always move in cycles
But never straight ahead
They spiral down
Open circuit to escape
Resistance in my heart
For this is never
Worth sacrifices made
Time flying past
Past you
You're left behind
The system holding like a vice
The end of the line
Getting ever nearer
Is yesterday
Embedded in your heart?
Or is it lost?
Dead like all the others
Filled with void that echoes
A painful truth
The current flows
Will I resist?
The current flows through you
The system pulls
But I resist
A route against the flow
The answers found
Always too late
But maybe there's a chance
System resistance
To escape
To find another day
Searching for new ways
Beyond this existence
Finding solutions
Out of my reach
Time flying past me
Increasing the strain
System resistance
I capture and hold
Like symbols in their code
They move in cycles
But never straight ahead
They spiral down
It will never be
Worth sacrifices made
