GLASS SIREN

I woke beneath the frozen glass With every warning burning white The room was holding back its breath As if the dark could stop the light I heard the wires call my name I felt the pressure in my skin You built a silence around me Then waited for the sound to win Glass siren I am ringing in the white light Glass siren Cutting through the dead night Every fracture turns to fire Every breath becomes a sign I am ringing through the silence High enough to wake the void You said my voice was much too sharp Too bright to carry through the room But every note you tried to bury Came back louder through the gloom I learned the language of the glass The pitch it makes before it breaks I held the frequency between us Until the whole foundation shook Glass siren I am ringing in the white light Glass siren Cutting through the dead night Every fracture turns to fire Every breath becomes a sign I am ringing through the silence High enough to wake the void I do not need a softer sound I do not need a safer shape I was never made for quiet I was made to resonate Let the windows lose their balance Let the perfect surface split Let the signal climb above us Let the whole world answer it Glass siren I am ringing in the white light Glass siren Cutting through the dead night Every fracture turns to fire Every breath becomes a sign I am ringing through the silence High enough to wake the void Glass siren Hear the white light calling Glass siren Hear the old walls falling I am ringing I am ringing High enough to wake the void
