[Instrumental Intro, glitch textures, distant voices, mechanical breathing, warped synth pulses] [Verse 1] Code of silence (shhh…) Clogs my throat (cl-cl-cl…) Your comfort zone Is my tightrope (tight… tight…) Acting human — That’s my role (role…) Crack the script Still not whole (whole… whole…) “Too much” they say (say…) “Too weird”, “Too wild” I’m the ghost Of your inner child [Chorus] Not designed for this (tick-tick-tick) Your system’s lie (lie-lie-lie) I break the mold And you ask why? Not designed for this (click-click-click) I glitch in place You debug me To save face [Interlude, distorted bass, static build] [Verse 2] Neural maze (maze…) Spiked with norms You dance through I weather storms (storms…) Your empathy Is surface code Mine runs deeper Off the road (road-road-road) You translate pain Into performance I scream in data And get silence [Chorus] Not designed for this (tick-tick-tick) Your rules don’t fit You diagnose But don’t commit Not designed for this (click-click-click) My mind won’t bend And that’s the part You can’t defend [Bridge, layered noise, whispers overlapping] Sensory war Behind my skin You call me lost But I won’t give in Refuse to mask Your world’s demands Refuse to shrink To fit your plans [Break, staccato glitch beat, heavy bass distortion] [Verse 3] Eyes scan fast Your subtext lies I miss the cue But read your eyes Burnout’s not Just “being lazy” I’m not slow You’re just too hasty Your light blinds Your noise invades But I survive While your world fades [Final Chorus] Not designed for this (tick-tick-tick) Yet still I rise In every crack I redefine Not designed for this (click-click-click) And that’s my gift My broken shape Will always shift [Outro, mechanical decay, ambient drone]
