Lyric

Run… or freeze

Tick… tick…

Petapeta steps in the midnight glow

Tiny echoes that I can’t ignore

She smiles sweet with a hollow shine

A ticking secret under her coat of white

Cold little hands, but a burning stare

“Don’t you move,” she whispers in the air

I try to laugh, say it’s just a game

But the seconds carve my name

She tilts her head like a broken toy

Soft, then sharp—like a hidden ploy

My heartbeat syncs with the silent drum

I feel the countdown coming on

I see the wires in her eyes

Blue reflections, sweet disguise

“Stay with me,” she sings so low

While every second starts to glow

No exit sign, no turning back

Her footsteps drawing on my track

Petapeta—closer still

Frozen feet, a failing will

“Don’t run away,” she softly pleads

While tightening invisible leads

I try to breathe, I try to lie

But every blink is do or die

Hear the ticking in my chest

Every second feels possessed

If you love me, don’t you move

Let me show you what I prove

Penguin BOMB, it’s counting down

Petapeta—no safe ground

Closer, closer, don’t you flee

You belong right here with me

Heartbeat syncs with every tick

Time is slipping, fast and quick

Hold me tight, don’t break apart

I’ll explode inside your heart

Too late

She hums a tune I used to know

But now it feels like undertow

Her eyes shine bright, a twisted plea

“Why won’t you just stay with me?”

Petapeta—step by step

Every breath becomes a threat

I see the timer in her grin

Zero waiting deep within

I tried to run, but lost the way

Her shadow stretched across the gray

“Don’t leave me now,” she calls my name

While playing love like it’s a game

I reach for light, but all I find

Is ticking wrapped around my mind

Her gentle voice, a final chord

A quiet, fatal overlord

Stay right here, don’t close your eyes

This is where forever lies

If you leave, I’ll break apart

So I’ll break your beating heart

Penguin BOMB, we’re out of time

Petapeta—cross the line

No escape, no turning back

Love is written in the crack

Hold me closer, feel the end

I’ll be more than just a friend

If we fall, we fall as one

Count to zero—then we’re done

Zero

Petapeta fades into the dark

Leaving echoes, leaving marks

If I couldn’t make you stay

I’d rather blow us both away

A soft goodbye, a final tone

No one ever dies alone

In the silence after sound

Only shattered love is found
