[Verse 1]
Blood on the chalk where the circle breaks
He stepped in shadows for her tiny stakes
Numbers on a jacket
Not a name
In this game
There’s no one to blame
[Prechorus]
A scream
A breath
A fleeting chance
The edge of mercy
A wicked dance
[Chorus]
He let the night fall
Let the dice roll
Gave her the world
Sold his own soul
Player 456
The hero untamed
For a child who never knew the game
[Verse 2]
Her cries cut through the roar of the crowd
The rules were cruel but he said them out loud
"Take my step
Take my air
Take my life"
This isn't survival—it’s sharper than a knife
[Prechorus]
The floor split wide
The stars went dim
He stood there silent
The choice was grim
[Chorus]
He let the night fall
Let the dice roll
Gave her the world
Sold his own soul
Player 456
The hero untamed
For a child who never knew the game
