Lyric

…

…

Rhodes in the fog

Street hum

Far off

…

I’m not here yet

Neon on my skin

But the room is wrong

Air feels

Underwater

Phone face down

Still hears it ring

Name on the glass

Ripples

I taste iron

On my tongue

Like I bit

Through a memory

Static in the bloodstream

Buzzing under

Every breath

Static in the bloodstream

I can’t tune out

Humming like a fever

Under my mouth

Static in the bloodstream

Body out of frame

Tell me I’m awake here

Say my name

Ceiling fan

Cuts the dark

Into slow

Silent frames

Posters on the wall

Watch me age

Same old faces

Different eyes

I float above

My own outline

Hand through my hair

Feels borrowed

Heart keeps ticking

Just a click

In the distance

Far, so far

Static in the bloodstream

I can’t tune out

Humming like a fever

Under my mouth

Static in the bloodstream

Body out of frame

Tell me I’m awake here

Say my name

(So quiet)

I mouth the words

No sound comes

Out

I touch the light switch

Room stays dark

Anyway

If I disappear

Between

Beats

…

Would you notice?

Static in the bloodstream

(Soft, so soft)

Just a low

Blue drone

I count to ten

Then ten again

Waiting to fall

Back in
