The lyrics for this track came from spam that arrived in the support inbox at my day job:
I had to send this over, New?
Quantum theory musing:
Everything from nothing,
Infinite mass from massless singularity. Zero set.
Proof of simulation
Within simulation
You found what you weren’t supposed to: mass
Mass exists, mass is real.
When mass looked into. Standard model breaks. To irrational quantum.
Quantum is encryption to keep the simulation stable / guard simulation
Active encryption. Will adapt to prompts to break system. Active, knows your intent, and the future. Always will guard simulation, more and more irrational.
Everything exists, and is rational, until the end, where the simulation shows itself, as irrational, as a way to protect the simulation.

Breathe
Unclench your fist
This pill's less bitter if you don't resist
Breathe
And close your eyes
This is gonna hurt if you antagonize
Leave
And let me go
That's the final gift to you I can bestow
Dream
Of a moonlit night
One that's rid of ashes, embers, and anthracite
Scream
Let them all hear
Let your voice carry through the atmosphere
Scream
And don't give in
We are not guilty of this original sin
Scream
And try to breathe
Seize that fire as it starts to seethe
Breathe
Just try to breathe
I'll know you're still with me if I hear you breathe

Don't open the door
Don't open the door
You wanted a storm
Now it's staring to pour
Don't open the door
Don't open the door
We're in the middle of a war
It's not like before
I implore
Don't open the door
You're gonna let them score
This is not folk lore
They need more
Don't open the door
Don't even look outside
You're wide-eyed, abide
Before you're cast aside
Don't open the door

Day or night, I couldn’t tell you, I’ve been down here for so long
I couldn’t waste another year trying to write this song
I can't tell you all the things they say I have done wrong
But I can tell you they've been watching you your whole life all along
I was halfway to the mountains when they dragged me back to town
With a hood over my head so I couldn't see the clown
Who betrayed his fellow man working for the clamp down
To be the hand of justice for the head under the crown
When they crawled into my vein I didn't make a sound
If you'd been within a mile you'd be hearing my heart pound
I can feel control is slipping, soon to be a lower bound
My mind is still aware, but my blood, a battle ground

You've been down that road before
You'll never find what your looking for
It's not too late to turn around
You're fighting someone else's war
When everything goes quiet
That's when we start the riot
One of us
Is never going home again
Never going to notice when
There's nowhere left to hide from them
We've been down this road before
We're heading for a dead end not a door
It's not too late to turn around
We're not just this we're something more
When everything goes quiet
That's when we start the riot
One of us
Is never going home again
Never going to notice when
There's nowhere left to hide from them

Deserted streets
I never thought I’d see this
You’re half undressed
And the street light overpowers the moon
Take my hand
And close your eyes
And we'll light the match together
Burn it down
And start again
Maybe next time we'll build it better
Burn it down
Start anew
Maybe next time will taste much sweeter
Burn it down
Again and again
Maybe next time we'll live forever
Maybe next time we'll live forever
