Unwritten Variable

The neon bleeds across the wet asphalt
A lonely signal cutting through the mist

She walks alone where shadows have digitalised
The city hums a song she used to know

The screens are flashing names without a face
The memory she held is slipping into code

The hackers trace the lines she left behind
She's caught between the system and the ghost

She runs through wires and alleyways of chrome
She fights the grid, but still she finds her way

The servers look for answers in her eyes
The artificial night begins to blur

The power fades, the city starts to sleep
She thought she'd find a ghost inside the machine

But here she stands, more human than the rest
The pulse connects

She runs through wires and alleyways of chrome
She fights the grid, but still she finds her way

The rain remains, the system fades
The code is broken, but her heart is real
