Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Down in the gears where the engines groan Where the pipes breathe smoke like a dying home A cube lay still in the rust and grime Ticking out of step with the hands of time A man with wires inside his brain Thought he could harness what he couldn’t name Turned the key—just one mistake And something old began to wake [Chorus] P.A.N.D.O.R.A.—Don’t look inside City heartbeat out of line Feel it crawling in your mind Pulling every thread of time P.A.N.D.O.R.A.—you can’t contain P.A.N.D.O.R.A.—it won’t remain Every second splits in two Nothing here is safe from you [Verse 2] No explosion, no bright flare Just silence twisting in the air Then a scream no one could hear But it lived inside their fear Minds all cracked like shattered glass Time bent wrong, the moment passed Now it drifts through alleyways Counting down forgotten days [Chorus] P.A.N.D.O.R.A.—Don’t look inside City heartbeat out of line Feel it crawling in your mind Pulling every thread of time P.A.N.D.O.R.A.—you can’t contain P.A.N.D.O.R.A.—it won’t remain Every second splits in two Nothing here is safe from you [Bridge] Clockwork shadows crawling thin Something scratching from within Not alive—but not yet gone Echoes where the dead belong Every time they try to bind It rewrites the edge of time No control, no kill switch found Just that broken, endless sound [Sax Break / Instrumental Cue] (low brass pulse, warped ticking, distorted sax melody rising) [Verse 3] Barons watch with hollow eyes Counting profit, counting lies But the engine starts to shake Every system starts to break From the cracks crawl things not meant From a future never spent Every gear begins to stall As the void rewrites it all [Chorus] P.A.N.D.O.R.A.—Don’t look inside City heartbeat out of line Feel it crawling in your mind Pulling every thread of time P.A.N.D.O.R.A.—you can’t contain P.A.N.D.O.R.A.—it won’t remain Every second splits in two Nothing here is safe from you [Outro] No will, no voice, no grand design Just a door that won’t decline And if you hear that distant tone… You’re already not alone
