Lyric

Blue screen glow on my face

Coffee rings on the database

Half past 2

Chasing ghosts

You in the code

In the rows

Every log feels like a memory

Error lines read like poetry

I trace your name in the query

Hit run

Heart racing

I’m ready

In my last data dream

You were more than a string on a screen

You stepped out of the stream

Broke the loop

Rewrote the scene

If the server goes dark tonight

And I lose every trace of your light

I’ll still see you

Between the bits and beams

In my last data dream

Old hard drives on the shelf

Hold the parts of my old self

Fragments flicker

Scenes half-saved

You’re the file I never changed

You appear in corrupted frames

Laughing loud in the static rain

I reach out through the archive mist

Feel the warmth I almost missed

In my last data dream

You were more than a string on a screen

You stepped out of the stream

Broke the loop

Rewrote the scene

If the server goes dark tonight

And I lose every trace of your light

I’ll still see you

Between the bits and beams

In my last data dream
