The stories behind Read My Nerve
- Vocoded Driving Synthpop in Read My Nerve — Take B ramps up the energy to 128 BPM with four-on-the-floor percussion, robotic vocoder harmonies, and punchy synth bass.
- Bridging Signals and Carbon in Read My Nerve — Take A dives into the electrophysiology of myoelectric prosthetics, where microvolts translate thought into fluid mechanical movement.
Lyrics
A pinprick tremor on the skin
A signal small as breath begins
You read the muscle's quiet code
And map the spark
to each joint's road
Microvolts cross the measured line
Each twitch translated,
timed in time
Read my nerve, let the hand unfold
Carbon fingers answer what I hold
One small impulse,
clear and true
A living motion
Passing through
Passing through
Passing through
Residual nerves and coded signs
Your patient system finds the lines
A thumb turns softly, fingers close
The borrowed hand moves as I chose
No suddenly, no rigid pose
A finer path in every close
Breathe my nerve, let the hand unfold
One small impulse clear and true
A living motion passing through
A cup lifted,
without a shake A button found,
a class to make
Not force alone,
a practice grace The signal finds, it's human place
Read my nerve, let the hand unfold
fingers into what I hold
One small impulse clear and true
A living motion passing through
The smallest signal
Steady known
I'm a moving hand
That feels my own
