tick in the pulse
tick in the pulse
singular
screen glow cutting through the dust in the air
headphones clamped tight I don t feel the chair
the kettle just screamed but I let it scream
half a bowl of something cold dissolving half a dream
my hands find the keys find the tempo find the shape
the chaos in my chest begins to execute its great escape
breath slows down
thoughts unspool
static fades
finally singular
I m not thinking I m just riding the current now
every answer falls before I ask the question how
the noise outside becomes a language I don t speak
I am the peak I am the peak
lost in the logic but I m finally free
everything clicking inside of me
nothing is missing no fracture no fray
singular state I could drown here all day
a spilled coffee ring dried up on the note
your last message sits unread in my throat
I almost chased it down the spiral of what went wrong
but then the kick drum kicked and pulled me back where I belong
the metronome of my spine realigning the beat
I used to call this running now I call it a retreat
breath slows down
thoughts unspool
static fades
finally singular
I m not thinking I m just riding the current now
every answer falls before I ask the question how
the noise outside becomes a language I don t speak
I am the peak I am the peak
lost in the logic but I m finally free
everything clicking inside of me
nothing is missing no fracture no fray
singular state I could drown here all day
synaptic highways open wide no traffic in my mind
every dead end thought I fought just got left behind
the future isn t screaming and the past forgot my name
I m suspended in the sequence of a beautifully designed frame
no friction in the circuit no lag in the display
every millisecond measured and it bends to what I say
the silence is a canvas and my focus is the blade
carving out a world where hesitation can t invade
I used to grip the wheel so tight my knuckles turned to bone
now I let the current carry and I m never on my own
the signal is immaculate the feedback loop is clean
I am something like a sanctuary inside a machine
not escaping not erasing not transcending not pretending
just a permanent attention with no reason for an ending
I am here I am here I am here I am here
breath slows down
thoughts unspool
static fades
finally singular
I m not thinking I m just riding the current now
every answer falls before I ask the question how
the noise outside becomes a language I don t speak
I am the peak I am the peak
lost in the logic but I m finally free
everything clicking inside of me
nothing is missing no fracture no fray
singular state I could drown here all day
tick in the pulse
tick in the pulse
singular
