[Verse 1 — conversational, restrained, slightly behind the beat] Words lost weight, they crumble when I lift ’em, hollow symbols lost into the destructive system. Your talk feels real, but your language feels wrong, every sentence that I touch, turns the message into a song. Meaning keeps slipping through the cracks when I speak, like the truth’s too wide for the narrowness of speech. My thoughts lose shape, get lost up in your system, like the moment I shape ’em, they’ve gone and you’ve missed ‘em. I’m stuck in the space where intention don’t lie, where the world talks loud but I don’t even try. Not ‘cause I’m above it — I’m just outside the frame, watching every conversation fall apart before it came. [Hook — fuller chest voice, steady, grounded] Language feels strange when I try to relate, every sound I shape comes out second‑rate. My thoughts stay strong but they lack a solid foundation, I can’t lock in with your mechanism of communication. [Verse 2 — tighter phrasing, slightly frustrated, clipped delivery] I’m out of phase with the tone in the room, every phrase I form fades out just that little too soon. Your meaning hits clean, I scatter on release, like the grammar collapses before I can move a piece. I try to align but the cadence won’t stay, the start of my thought ain’t the end of my say. My mind keeps drifting past your thoughts and expectations, I don’t mean this as a miss of communications. [Bridge — thinner tone, breathier, collapsing delivery] I fall through the gaps where the meaning should lie, every word turns hollow like it reaches from up high. No rhythm, no structure, no clear indication— just the quiet collapse of our once‑trusted communication. [Hook — final push, more urgency, slight crack on edges] Language feels strange when I try to relate, every sound I shape comes out second‑rate. My thoughts stay strong but they lack a solid foundation, I can’t lock in with your mechanism of communication. [Outro — wait until the music fully stops, then speak this line only, no melody, keep it flat] I can’t catch your drift, if the message isn’t spoken, anything left between the lines you left it broken, it’s open.
