[Verse 1]
Screens light up with breaking news
Teenage eyes glued to the view
Dad's voice echoes through the halls
"Technology will be our fall"
Sixteen when the waves came in
Digital ghosts beneath my skin
[Pre-Chorus]
Every warning sign we missed
While dancing under neon mist
The future's not what they promised me
In this electric fantasy
[Chorus]
System failure, sirens cry
Pretty lights against dark skies
Sweet destruction, can't look away
As paradise begins to fade
Digital dreams turn to rust
In machines we placed our trust
Now we're dancing through the flames
Nothing ever stays the same
[Verse 2]
Warehouse parties pulse all night
Drowning out our parent's fright
Underground we feel alive
While circuits burn and systems die
Remember what they used to say?
"Progress lights the darker days"
Now we're lost in static streams
Kawaii nightmares, broken dreams
[Bridge]
Father's scars still tell the tale
Of iron gods that always fail
But we keep pushing through the pain
Dancing in radioactive rain
Sweet delusions, crystal clear
Everything we love is here
In this artificial high
Where cherry blossoms never die
[Chorus]
System failure, sirens cry
Pretty lights against dark skies
Sweet destruction, can't look away
As paradise begins to fade
Digital dreams turn to rust
In machines we placed our trust
Now we're dancing through the flames
Nothing ever stays the same
[Outro]
Emergency frequencies sing
While Tokyo's sleeping
The future's breaking
But we keep raving
Through the static and the screams
In our technological dreams
Sweet disaster, hold me tight
As we dance into the night
