Ghost Protocols

Neon dripping from the ceiling

Static crawling through my veins

Empty voices in the distance

Calling out forgotten names

Cold reflections in the glass now

Moving half a step behind

Every shadow hides a question

Every answer blurs my mind

Low lights, black skies

Pressure building every night

Slow pulse, red eyes

Something waiting out of sight

Feel the bassline taking over

Like a ghost beneath my skin

Dark waves pulling me under

Don’t know where this ends begins

Heartbeat synced with broken sirens

Smoke and sparks across the floor

Leave the door half open tonight

I don’t wanna know what’s more

Silver signals cut the silence

Fragments flicker in the haze

No one speaks but something’s breathing

Through the rhythm, through the pain

Streetlights dying one by one now

Midnight burning into blue

I can feel the city watching

Like it knows exactly who

No names

No faces

Just silhouettes in vacant places

One touch

One warning

Static before the storm hits morning

Feel the bassline taking over

Like a ghost beneath my skin

Lost inside the coded heartbeat

Let the darkness pull me in

Cracked horizon, endless motion

Neon tears and engine smoke

Somewhere deep beneath the silence

Something finally awoke
