System Crash

Verse 1)

The timestamps don’t lie, they’re etched in the glow

Of a screen in the dark, and a truth I now know.

My logical mind is a cold, quiet room

Scanning the patterns, dispersing the gloom.

The inconsistencies, the gaps in the day,

The data is screaming what you couldn’t say.

(Chorus)

This is my reality, the data shows the truth

The evidence is gathered, from the shadows to the roof.

You tried to set the stage, you tried to pull the wire

But I’m standing in the clarity, while you’re buried in the fire.

The truth is a shield, and it’s protecting me now.

(Verse 2)

But the heart is a house that was built on a lie

And the emotional brain doesn't know how to die.

It’s not moving slow, it’s just overloaded

By the "what ifs" and "whys" that have slowly eroded.

Betrayal is heavy, it’s a physical weight

A crash of the system, a twist of the fate.

(Chorus)

This is my reality, the data shows the truth

The evidence is gathered, from the shadows to the roof.

You tried to set the stage, you tried to pull the wire

But I’m standing in the clarity, while you’re buried in the fire.

The truth is a shield, and it’s protecting me now.

(Bridge)

It’s not a flaw, it’s just biology

The adrenaline's gone, leaving only the memory.

Of the version of you that I wanted to keep

But that ghost is a secret I no longer sleep.

My logic has moved on, it’s already through—

But my heart needs the time to stop looking for you.

(Outro)

The data shows the truth...

(The truth, the truth)

It’s not behind, it’s just healing.

Healing.

My reality
