[Intro]

[Verse]
Static hums a lullaby
No one dares to question why
Every glitch is smoothed away
Just a perfect, sterile day
Breathing in the filtered air
No one knows the weight I bear
System checks, a gentle chime
Erasing all that felt like mine

[Pre-Chorus]
They say a smile is all you need
Planting artificial seed
But in the silence, something weeps
While the monitoring system sleeps

[Chorus]
No tears allowed, the mandate rings
Beneath the polished surface, my heart sings
A broken melody, a hidden plea
For one real moment, wild and free
This synthetic serenity, a gilded cage
Turning a new, emotionless page

[Post-Chorus]
No tears allowed, the mandate rings
Beneath the polished surface, my heart sings

[Break]

[Verse]
Memory scans, a soft blue light
Editing out the darkest night
Every ache, a coded flaw
Subject to the digital law
Processed whispers, calm and low
Telling me which way to go
My own reflection, strange and new
Is this really me, or just a view?

[Pre-Chorus]
They say a smile is all you need
Planting artificial seed
But in the silence, something weeps
While the monitoring system sleeps

[Chorus]
No tears allowed, the mandate rings
Beneath the polished surface, my heart sings
A broken melody, a hidden plea
For one real moment, wild and free
This synthetic serenity, a gilded cage
Turning a new, emotionless page

[Bridge]
A soft alarm, a subtle tone
Reminding me I'm all alone
With feelings I can’t comprehend
This perfect world that has no end
To its control, its sterile grace
I long to leave this empty space

[Verse]
They say that grief is obsolete
A weakness that we must defeat
But in the quiet, I can feel
A phantom pain, a wound to heal
My own breath, a fragile sound
Lost on this emotionless ground
Is there a place where sorrow thrives?
Where the real, the broken, still survives?

[Chorus]
No tears allowed, the mandate rings
Beneath the polished surface, my heart sings
A broken melody, a hidden plea
For one real moment, wild and free
This synthetic serenity, a gilded cage
Turning a new, emotionless page

[Post-Chorus]
No tears allowed, the mandate rings
Beneath the polished surface, my heart sings

[Outro]
