Lyrics

[Verse 1]
In the quantum realm where particles play
Superposition holds its mysterious sway
Electrons spinning up and down at once
Till measurement collapses all their stunts
But fragile states need isolation pure
One stray photon makes the magic blur

[Chorus]
Coherence keeps the quantum dream alive
Decoherence makes the weirdness die
Environment whispers break the spell
Temperature, noise, and photons tell
The secret states they cannot hide
When classical worlds and quantum collide

[Verse 2]
Entangled pairs across the void stay linked
Their fates together perfectly synced
But vibrations from the outside creep
Destroying correlations they would keep
The warmer it gets, the faster they fall
Decoherence conquers one and all

[Chorus]
Coherence keeps the quantum dream alive
Decoherence makes the weirdness die
Environment whispers break the spell
Temperature, noise, and photons tell
The secret states they cannot hide
When classical worlds and quantum collide

[Bridge]
Microseconds, nanoseconds tick away
Quantum advantage starts to fray
Error correction fights the decay
But entropy will have its way
Schrödinger's cat becomes just dead or living
When decoherence stops forgiving

[Verse 3]
Quantum computers need their states pristine
Near absolute zero keeps them clean
Shielded chambers, vacuum-sealed tight
Protecting qubits from ambient light
Every interaction steals the phase
As quantum magic quickly fades

[Final Chorus]
Coherence keeps the quantum dream alive
Decoherence makes the weirdness die
Guard the states with all your might
From thermal chaos, sound, and light
The quantum edge will slip away
When decoherence wins the day

[Outro]
Fragile, fleeting, quantum states
Coherence controls their quantum fates
