Static Canopy

[Intro]
[Verse]
I trace the static lines
Beneath the digital pines
A ladder made of code
Upon this heavy road
The planks begin to fray
In a pixelated way
[Pre-Chorus]
Wind is humming through the wire
Burning like a cold fire
I hear a ghost of me
Climbing up the memory tree
[Chorus]
Pixel fireflies glow
In the data flow
Ten years old again
Where the dreams begin
Warped and bittersweet
Glitch beneath my feet
[Post-Chorus]
Hold the echo tight
In the neon light
Wait for the gold
Before I get old
[Verse]
The floorboards start to tear
Floating in the empty air
I smell the resin scent
From a time that's spent
My smaller hand in mine
Crossing every border line
[Pre-Chorus]
Wind is humming through the wire
Burning like a cold fire
I hear a ghost of me
Climbing up the memory tree
[Chorus]
Pixel fireflies glow
In the data flow
Ten years old again
Where the dreams begin
Warped and bittersweet
Glitch beneath my feet
[Breakdown]
"Are you still there?"
"I'm everywhere"
"Is the wood real?"
"It's how you feel"
"Don't close the door"
"I'm on the floor"
[Bridge]
Let the archive fade
In the digital shade
I don't need the file
To remember your smile
The resolution drops
Until the system stops
[Verse]
"I'm still up here," she said
Inside my adult head
The bark is cold and grey
Don't let it wash away
The screen begins to blink
Faster than I can think
[Chorus]
Pixel fireflies glow
In the data flow
Ten years old again
Where the dreams begin
Warped and bittersweet
Glitch beneath my feet
[Post-Chorus]
Hold the echo tight
In the neon light
Wait for the gold
Before I get old
[Outro]
