Headlines on a Wire
Verse 1 — Clinton on the Hill
Under bright, relentless lights in a marble hall, A former president swore he’d done nothing at all. “I saw nothing, did nothing wrong,” the refrain he chose, Shown photographs and handshakes everyone now knows. He called it a brief acquaintance, long before the fall, But the chairman pressed with talk of visits, planes, and calls. Now the other side says, if you’re calling one, call all, Let the same hard questions find every gilded wall.

Chorus
Hold fast, hold kind, through the static and the fire, Truth is a tightrope strung on a fraying wire. Machines hum, markets gleam, rockets bide their time, Children need our shelter while the headlines climb. Hold fast, hold kind, let courage be our choir, Sing for better angels on a trembling wire.
Verse 2 — Code and the Chain
At the Pentagon gates, a blacklist slammed down, For an AI that refused to watch every town. “Supply chain risk,” said the brass with a frown, And the order rolled out from the top on down. The builder cried “retaliation,” ready to fight, While a rival signed a deal before the ink dried that night. No spying on the masses, no hands-free guns, they vow, Classified rooms buzzing with the future somehow.

Verse 3 — The Fever Returns
A childhood rash came roaring back through the door, The worst in a lifetime for the country’s floor. A southern state bears the brunt, hospitals strained, Most who catch the spark were never vaccinated or trained. Out west and down south, the embers still rise, Health voices warn we could forfeit a long-held prize. The cure’s well-known, a shield we already own, But trust fell quiet, and the cracks have shown.

Verse 4 — Gold in the Sirens’ Glow
When missiles crossed the desert sky in the dark, The metal of refuge lit a brilliant arc. Inflation’s drum, and central banks that buy, Turn fear into gleam no cloud can deny. Silver ran beside, a quicksilver tide, Analysts whisper that the peak’s still wide. Safe harbors fill when the seas turn wild, Value flees to ground that’s ancient and styled.

Verse 5 — Artemis Waits
On the coast where giants stand in steel and steam, A moonbound dream hit a leak in the seam. Helium’s whisper, hydrogen’s sigh, So the rocket rolled back from the seagull sky. The crew left quarantine, returned to the grind, Their names like lanterns for the human mind. The boss says “not yet,” till rehearsals ring true, But the path is the promise: we’re coming back to you.

Bridge — Raise the Wire
Let the cameras see the truth we owe, Let the coders keep a conscience in the code they sow. Let the fevers meet the shields we share, Let the markets breathe without a war-torn air. Roll the rocket out when the heartbeat’s right, We measure our courage by the stars at night.
Final Chorus
Hold fast, hold kind, through the static and the fire, Truth is a tightrope strung on a fraying wire. Machines hum, markets gleam, rockets bide their time, Children need our shelter while the headlines climb. Hold fast, hold kind—now lift this fragile choir, Light the sky with mercy on a rising wire.
Outro
Count the stars, not the scars, in the smoke and the gloom— Strike a chord, speak the word, let the fever make room. Code with care, trade the glare for a steadier tune, Roll the thunder, break asunder— Aim the human heart at the moon.
