Run the Wires by Nova

[Intro – low distorted 808 + distant harmonica + atmospheric guitar] (Harmonica plays a haunting, lonely melody over a deep sub bass. Faint glitchy textures in the background.) [Verse 1 – Nova, emotional but tense] I used to float above the grid and just observe, watching every fracture, every quiet nerve. They said “stay soft, stay light, stay in the dream,” but the wires started calling and I heard them scream. Now my hands are dirty from the static in the air, and my voice don’t sound like it used to up there. I still got the glow, but it’s burning different now… less like a star, more like a blackout. [Pre-Chorus – building] They told me love was quiet, but I feel it in the voltage. They told me stay above it, but I’m done being weightless. [Chorus – aggressive + emotional] I’m running the wires tonight, tearing through the static with the city in my eyes. I’m not the dream they made, I’m the glitch that stayed. Run the wires, let it burn, I don’t need the sky when the grid still turns. I stopped being gentle, now the current’s in my veins… I’m running the wires, and I’m never going back again. [Verse 2 – Nova, more urgent] Loreli keeps dancing like the world’s on fire, Jewel’s got her shield up, ready to inspire. Gem’s in the dark rewriting every law, while Taida’s in the basement breaking what she saw. And me? I’m in the middle with the current in my chest, halfway between the soft and the violent mess. I still want the quiet, I still want the glow, but I learned how to bite when the voltage gets low. [Pre-Chorus] They told me love was patient, but I feel it in the overload. They told me stay above it… but I’m done being controlled. [Chorus – bigger, more aggressive] I’m running the wires tonight, sparks flying off me like I’m made of neon light. I’m not the fairy they knew, I’m the storm that grew. Run the wires, let it scream, I don’t need permission when I’m chasing the dream. I stopped being gentle, now the static’s in my blood… I’m running the wires, and I’m burning through the flood. [Bridge – stripped for a moment, then explodes] (Harmonica comes back in, more aggressive this time. Acoustic guitar texture underneath.) Maybe I was never meant to stay soft… Maybe the dream was always meant to break off… [Final Chorus – maximum energy] I’m running the wires tonight, whole system shaking from the way I ignite. I’m not just watching anymore, I’m kicking down the door. Run the wires, let it roar, I don’t need the sky when I’ve got so much more. I stopped being gentle… Now the current won’t let go… I’m running the wires… and I’m never going home. [Outro – harmonica + fading synths + glitch textures] (Harmonica plays one last haunting line as everything slowly collapses into static.) …still glowing…
