[Verse 1] At the threshold Everything’s pending Ghosts in a ledger Waiting for a witness Waves in a lattice All these maybe-worlds Folded like paper Begging to be opened [Verse 2] States on standby Frozen in a shrug Tiny coin flips Balancing on nothing Your hand My choice Hovers on a key Collapse the shimmer Name what used to breathe [Chorus] Time is not a river Time is a heartbeat Pulse by pulse the possible completes Blocks of light ticking into being All that we were Locked in the seams Time is not a river Time is a heartbeat Pulse by pulse the possible completes Moments don’t flow They shatter and link Step after step on a disappearing brink [Bridge] Entropy and energy Spinning at the edge of memory Trembling on the smallest ledge Where every truth is pale Entropy and energy Trading masks in secret halls Spinning out a fragile fringe Where maybe never falls [Chorus] Time is not a river Time is a heartbeat Pulse by pulse the possible completes Blocks of light ticking into being All that we are Etched in routines Time is not a river Time is a heartbeat Pulse by pulse the possible completes Moments don’t flow They shatter and link Step after step on a disappearing brink [Outro] Zero-point whispers under proof of work Silent choirs under every search Quantum fields hum beneath the proof of work Click by click We certify the world
