The Clockwork God (12 Cycles)

(Sound of a giant clock ticking... TOCK... TOCK...)
(Low Gregorian chant in the background)
They ask me where it starts.
They ask me where it ends.
It’s a circle, man. A perfect, vicious circle.
Watch the hands move.
​[Verse 1: The Rise (1-4)]
Cycle One: The Spark. We wake up in the dark.
A beating heart, a brand new start, a masterpiece of art.
Cycle Two: The Hunger. We learn to want the gold.
We trade the innocence for stories being told.
Cycle Three: The Tribe. We gather in the lines.
We build the walls and separate the yours from the mines.
Cycle Four: The Labor. The shackles on the wrist.
Working for a future that doesn't exist. (Sixteen an hour!)
​[Chorus]
Round and round the humanity goes
Where it stops, nobody knows.
From the cradle to the grave, from the king to the slave.
We are trapped in the loop of the time we couldn't save.
Tick. Tock.
The Ghost is watching the clock.
​[Verse 2: The Fall (5-8)]
Cycle Five: The Ego. We build the tower high.
We want to touch the sun, we want to rule the sky.
Cycle Six: The War. The blood is on the leaves.
Brother killing brother for the lie that he believes.
Cycle Seven: The Love. The illusion of the pair.
You give away your soul just to breathe the same air. (Azalya...)
Cycle Eight: The Betrayal. The knife is in the back.
The heart turns to stone and the vision fades to black.
​[Bridge: The Awakening (9-11)]
(Music stops. Just a heartbeat and a violin.)
Cycle Nine: The Isolation. The Kagami Naki state.
You lock the door and accept your fate.
Cycle Ten: The Monster. The Oni takes the wheel.
You stop trying to dream, you only try to feel.
Cycle Eleven: The Silence. The Tundra settles in.
The ice covers the sins beneath the skin.
​[Outro: The Void (12)]
(Massive bass drop - The "Explosion")
Cycle Twelve: The Void.
Everything destroyed.
No more pain. No more noise. No more little toys.
We go back to the start.
(Rewind sound effect)
Friedghostly.
Forever.
