This work was written with inspiration from Max Weber’s Iron Cage theory. Crucially, even the ruler eventually becomes a mere part trapped in the prison of rationality they themselves created. Projected onto my exclusive model Luna, the song depicts the psychological shift of someone who deifies the system, arrogantly treats others as disposable parts, and then realizes with a sense of emptiness that they themselves are the most elaborate part designed by the system.

In your daily life, do you ever feel like you are being standardized or compartmentalized? Please share your thoughts 😊

Transcript
00:13Specialist without spirit
00:18Sensualist without heart
00:229am, the beep signals
00:25The ritual of initiation
00:30High atop the glass bar
00:33I survey the world below
00:39The self is a luxury
00:42It has no place here
00:48Proof of existence is found only in the metrics
01:23Freedom
01:24The bars are invisible
01:26But you already know
01:30You can never leave this place
01:4211pm alone in the hollow glass castle
01:50Only the glare of the monitor
01:53Bleeds into the dark
01:59At the end of a day
02:01Measured by cold output
02:04I see the truth
02:08I wasn't just the one who castrated the ego
02:12I was the one being carved
02:17The spire I worship
02:19Was just a vertical cage
02:21The hand I thought held
02:24The whip was part of the iron bars
02:26I know now
02:28There is no exit
02:29From the start
02:31From the start
02:32I was just a pre-designed cop
02:34From the blast fire
02:36Where I oversee it
02:38All emotion is a cost
02:43Efficiency
02:44Is the only cream
02:47The bars are invisible
02:49But now I see
02:50I can never leave
02:53No
02:55No
02:56No
02:58I can never leave
03:03No

03:13No
03:13No
03:13No
03:13No
03:15No
03:17No
03:17Without a spirit Sensualist
03:25It was always you
03:30It was me
03:38It was always me
03:48It was always me
