NO SIGNAL (Alastor's Song)

lyrics -
[Intro]
Static laughs across the air
Two kings kneel at the same affair
You sell control, I sell belief
Same smile — but mine has teeth

[Verse 1]

You speak in ratings, I speak in faith
You count the crowd, I bend their fate
Neon grin, familiar face
But yours flickers — mine erases
You call it power, I call it cage
I step in calm, you shake the stage
Same reflection, same disguise
I’m the past — you’re the noise tonight

[Pre-Chorus]
You say you rule but need the screen
I never asked to be seen
You record moments, scared they’ll die
I smile once — and rewrite time

[Chorus – Hook]
No signal, no wire, no chain
The contract burns down to flame
No signal — look at me
Two demons alike, but I broke free
No signal — feel the ground
This ain’t a broadcast
It’s a takedown

[Verse 2]
You wanted my name in neon glow
I let it happen — part of the show
While you sold eyes and cheap applause
I sold silence, fear, and laws
You thought the deal was my restraint
But I was the saint you couldn’t paint
Every time you played my face
My shadow ate your place

[Pre-Chorus 2]
You called me dead, a dying tone
But dead things haunt you when you’re alone
Now watch it live, no pause, no cut
Old sound systems still draw blood

[Chorus – Reprise]
No signal, cut the air
No contract left to spare
No signal — see the flaw
Your empire’s built of static straw
No signal — laugh at me
In the silence… I win clean
