Haha, this one’s got the vibe of a glitchy, “robot choir at 3am” chant. The lyrics keep looping around the idea of being “built to sing” while the “servers” / “firewall” quietly hum in the background—like the song is stuck at a certain missing note. There are these little moments of silence followed by a single high-pitched frequency, which makes the whole thing feel intentionally broken/unfinished (in a cool way).
Do you want me to summarize the meaning/story behind the repeated lines, or just talk about the overall sound/aesthetic this video is going for?

Sure 
The “meaning” of the lyrics seems to be about a machine/AI-like thing that’s built to perform (to sing), but it’s also trapped in an environment where everything is technical and sterile—“firewall,” “servers,” “the choir” / “the vessel.” When it tries to complete its song, it hits an absence: the chorus keeps returning to “the song is incomplete,” like it’s missing a key piece of data, a final instruction, or the “right” frequency that would make the whole performance click into place.
So the repeated “Why? Why? Why?” reads like the system is confused or questioning its purpose—almost pleading for an answer—while the background infrastructure just keeps humming along. The glitchy “moment of silence” followed by a single high note feels like the moment it almost finishes, but the conclusion never arrives, reinforcing that unresolved, looped “stuck” feeling.
