AdrIA GreyTones - Shadows Whisper

LYRICS: [Intro] A blue square opens in the wall The room forgets the hour Every window feeds the hall Every name becomes a number [Verse 1] You keep your hands beneath the desk Your coffee cools beside the screen A thousand faces ask for proof That you are still a living thing The cursor waits beside your name A small white tooth, a patient threat You type the truth, then backspace twice And leave the sentence incomplete [Pre-Chorus] Can you feel the floor give way Under all that data? Can you hear your breathing change When the system calls you later? [Chorus] Shadows whisper under the digital sky They know what we hide when the blue lights shine You reach through the glass, but your fingers pass by We are wide awake and nowhere inside [Verse 2] Your mother’s voice arrives compressed Her kitchen folded into sound You say you’re fine because it’s quick The signal drops before she answers back A child draws doors across a page Then fills each handle in with black Outside, the towers trade the rain While every locked room counts it back [Pre-Chorus] Can you feel the floor give way Under all that data? Can you hear your breathing change When the system calls you later? [Chorus] Shadows whisper under the digital sky They know what we hide when the blue lights shine You reach through the glass, but your fingers pass by We are wide awake and nowhere inside [Bridge] Turn off the feed Leave one lamp on Put both feet down Remember the weight Of an unopened door Of a hand that can shake If I say your name Will it stay in the room? If you look at me Will the picture come through? [Final Chorus] Shadows whisper under the digital sky But I hear your breath on the other side No perfect signal, no permanent sign Just two frightened hearts refusing to hide [Outro] The screen goes dark The wires still hum You stay beside me Until morning comes
