Lyrics
Rain on the pavement outside
Fluorescent tubes,
home and love
Just me
And the green peas
The night shadows in the subgrade hall
Drop the water down the concrete wall
Microwave signal buried in the static
Erratic pulses, restless in the reddit
Riding the potentiometers with gentle hands
Sifting gold out of the noisy sands
Turning down the bandwidth, seizing off the game
Listening to the cadence of the midnight
rain
Hide the interference Let the drift fade
away
Underneath the chaos Is a pulse waiting to sing
Look at the way it will rain tonight
A perfect, perfect flash of light
Breathe with the water falling from the sky
Felt dead and peaceful as the hours drift by
Schools curve, curve Rolling where the shadow meets the soul
Every little circuit finally made whole
No doctor shouting or ringing on the phone
Just a quiet universe, I navigate alone
The oscilloscope traces what the naked eye can see
A silent prayer in an infrequency
And when the dark
spaces beneath the busy walls
We keep the harmony
across the copper
A quiet heartbeat,
steady and clean
Get the wave, rain tonight
Perfect rhythm and a fast flight
Leave with the water falling from the sky
Filtered and peaceful as the hours drift by
Smooth curve,
only where the shadow meets the sun
Signal light
filter holding
Rest now
