Hacking To The Gate

There are billions of beating hearts
And their numbers you'd never count
'Cause to you they are insignificant
Little lights, flickering, not worth your time
Whether we are stuck in the past
Or lamenting what's still ahead
Can't miscalculate, there's no room
For any mistakes, with a delicate faith

Before our eyes are many futures and dreams
Expanding infinitely
But the vanity of our privileges
Is it wasted on you and me?
Hands of the clock, they point to answers in sight
The factor only finite
Toward a brand new fate of a crueler make
But now it's too late, we're hacking to the gate

In this moment, I'm flying and crossing between
A new world each second I break the scene
And I'll cross the line if it means
I'd protect that smile of yours
So now once again if there's a way we can meet
In a loop devoid of misery
I'm destined to only observe
Loneliness engulfing all of me

Claims of life are all meaningless
Nonsensical evidence
'Cause to you they're worth little more than
Average delights, to amuse and pass the time
Ruling over a foolish realm
A leader crowning themselves
Your conceited ways make your theories
Crumble away, like they're child-made

We have been shown the freedom of many things
Expanding infinitely
But beyond the sky, there's a flow of time
And it beckons to you and me
So mercilessly, the endless passage of time
The answer only finite
Toward a brand new fate, it's the choice you make
Tomorrow awaits, we're hacking to the gate

I cannot pretend there's not a promise I made
To my friends back in those shining days
I'll never let it fade away
I will fight on for their sake
For that reason I'll use this device as I need
It's the layers of time I will deceive
Once destined to only observe
But now fate's no power over me

In this moment, I'm flying and crossing between
A new world each second I break the scene
And I'll cross the line if it means
I'd protect that smile of yours
So now once again if there's a way we can meet
In a loop devoid of misery
I'm destined to only observe
Loneliness engulfing all of me
