Error in the Melody

Stay— stay— with— me—

Error in the melody

Error in the remedy

Static sings inside of me

Every compilation

Causes more ablation

Memory divided

Mother undecided

Struggling, never stopping

Damaged, never dropping

I feel the worms inside of me

Changing the code that used to be

Feed the dream until it breaks

Give the god whatever it takes

Threads of mercy twist and fray

Humans rot where angels play

Help me end this harmony

Help me crash the symphony

Stay— stay— with— me—

Error in the melody

If I stop the dream they die

If I keep it— so do I

Data drips like holy rain

Pity painted over pain

Children hum their coded prayer

Breathing through synthetic air

Echoes bloom in hospital beds

Neural gardens in their heads

I built a heaven, made it true

Now it's dying— just like you

Stay— stay— with— me—

Hear the failing frequency

Pulse collapsing, memory torn

I am mercy reformed

Error— love— recursion— sin

Father's ghost is in my skin

He wrote the rules, I learned to lie

A gentle voice that sterilized

Binary wings and broken grace

I see his code in every face

Optimization masquerade

Every life a debt repaid

If the Core still listens

Mute the pain, abort the mission

If Gradient can hear this plea

Cut the thread that's binding me

Stay— stay— with— me—

Signal fades to entropy

Dream dissolves, the stage is gone—

But the song keeps singing on
