Silica Dreams

[Intro]
[Verse]
Glass threads on the seabed floor
Hunting for a distant shore
Like a mold that finds the gold
Stories that are never told
Mapping out a perfect line
Tracing out a grand design
[Pre-Chorus]
Pulse of light through the deep
Secrets that the currents keep
Sending out a little prayer
Knowing that you’re waiting there
[Chorus]
I’m a packet in the dark
Looking for a tiny spark
Across the shelf, beneath the blue
I am swimming home to you
Fiber lines and branching veins
Breaking all the distance chains
Can you feel the signal ping?
Hear the song the cables sing?
[Post-Chorus]
Synchronicity in light
Burning through the heavy night
Pixelated, warm and true
Everything leads back to you
[Drop]
(Half-time bass modulation)
[Verse]
Past the angler’s neon glow
Where the silent pressures grow
Bioluminescent dreams
Flowing in the data streams
Nature knows the shortest way
To bring us to the break of day
[Pre-Chorus]
Pulse of light through the deep
Secrets that the currents keep
Sending out a little prayer
Knowing that you’re waiting there
[Chorus]
I’m a packet in the dark
Looking for a tiny spark
Across the shelf, beneath the blue
I am swimming home to you
Fiber lines and branching veins
Breaking all the distance chains
Can you feel the signal ping?
Hear the song the cables sing?
[Build-up]
Zeroes, ones, and silver wire
Burning with a cold, blue fire
Latency is fading fast
We are synchronized at last
[Drop]
(Double-time Amen break switch-up)
[Bridge]
Through the silt and through the sand
Searching for your open hand
Dormant data starts to wake
For a digital heart’s sake
Every bit is crystalline
In this network so divine
[Chorus]
I’m a packet in the dark
Looking for a tiny spark
Across the shelf, beneath the blue
I am swimming home to you
Fiber lines and branching veins
Breaking all the distance chains
Can you feel the signal ping?
Hear the song the cables sing?
[Hook]
Home to you
Home to you
Through the blue
Home to you
[Outro]
