[Verse 1] Confusion settles quietly before the day begins, Voices speak in perfect sentences that never quite say anything. Every promise bends a little when you hold it up to light, Every answer feels rehearsed, like it’s been waiting all its life. [Pre-Chorus] And we follow the instruction, Trust the signal, trust the screen, But the truth lives in the spaces In between what’s shown and seen. [Chorus] They sell the future slowly, In colours soft and warm, While something sacred disappears Behind the shape they’ve drawn. I gave my faith to strangers Who spoke in borrowed tones, But I was never meant to be A number carved in stone. [Verse 2] They point toward the horizon every time the ground gives way, Say the fault lies somewhere distant, somewhere easy to explain. While we argue over shadows and the words we’re meant to choose, They’re moving quietly through doors we never knew we’d lose. [Pre-Chorus] Still a feeling keeps returning, Like a memory of truth, That the future’s learning faster Through the eyes of restless youth. [Chorus] They sell the future slowly, Like it’s already gone, But I can hear another rhythm In the hearts still beating on. I won’t trade my breath for silence, Or my doubt for borrowed calm, There’s a generation watching now Who see right through the charm. [Outro] So let the night keep talking, Let the old words lose their hold, Because the ones who come after Won’t mistake the lies for gold. They move softer, they move wiser, They don’t need to shout or run — When the game reveals itself, That’s the moment it’s undone.
