Buffer Underrun

[Intro]
[Verse]
Wired to the motherboard's ghost
The one I used to love the most
System error, state your name
I am just a spark in the frame
Firewire tethered to the port
Life is getting rather short
Scanning data for a smile
Trapped inside a corrupted file
[Pre-Chorus]
Do not disconnect the drive
Keep the indie soul alive
Warning: data may be lost
Counting every bit it cost
[Drop]
Lost inside the hidden track
Click, whir, spin it back
Glitch in the system, blue and cold
Stories that will never be told
Syncing with a ghost tonight
Fading in the monitor light
Buffer underrun again
Searching for a digital friend
[Verse]
You traded me for glass and touch
I guess I asked for way too much
Now you’re swiping on a screen
A fossil in the machine
LiveJournal entries in the bin
Where does the hardware end begin?
Unauthorized device detected
Feeling cold and disconnected
[Pre-Chorus]
Format disk to start again
I remember way back when
Signal strength is dropping low
Nowhere left for files to go
[Drop]
Lost inside the hidden track
Click, whir, spin it back
Glitch in the system, blue and cold
Stories that will never be told
Syncing with a ghost tonight
Fading in the monitor light
Buffer underrun again
Searching for a digital friend
[Bridge]
(Static) I hear a melody
Four chords from a memory
It’s breaking into parts
Stuttering across my heart
Oh, I feel the beat
Digital and bittersweet
Looping on a broken string
Listen to the silicon sing
[Drop]
Accelerate the spinning plate
Overclocking way too late
Fragmented and falling fast
Nothing built is meant to last
Crash the logic, burn the fuse
Nothing left for me to lose
Zeroes, ones, and electric fire
Tangled in the copper wire
[Outro]
