RADIANT UNDERNEATH (Intergalactic Despair Mix)

[Verse 1] Caught and roo-roo-rooted deep inside my sor-sor-sorrow, in my des-pair deh-deh-descending slowly, giving in to the sto-sto-story wired into me A false acc-acc-account of who I was, who I a-am, who I’ll b-be Trying to keep me teth-teth-tethered, wei-wei-weighted, dragged so far be-low I can’t re-re-remember light [Glitch Refraction] fa-fa-fabricated I-D who I was // who I am // who I-am-not brr-brr-break… break… break file // er-er-error in me ⸻ [Verse 2] I sense a vuh-vuh-void No e-e-emotion, only ex-ex-existing Slipping dee-dee-deeper into the dark I imag-imag-imagine escape but it feels hope-hope-hopeless and I feel help-help-helpless Places that once held pur-pur-purpose become fa-fa-faces watching me fade I don’t know how wa-wa-walls turn into witnesses but I know wh-why they’re here ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] Their ex-ex-expressions blur yet they kn-kn-know my distress Some lean clo-clo-closer, pulling tight-tight-tighter the lies that an-an-anchor me to the bot-bot-bottom ⸻ [Chorus] I cried for he-he-help but no one mo-mo-moved They who fl-fl-float above they who feel no p-p-pull they who hold no mer-mer-mercy I sank so fa-fa-far I couldn’t see, coul-coul-couldn’t speak Living only to pro-pro-provide giving ev-ev-everything I thought had worth Blind in the deh-deh-deep I suh-suh-surrendered to the dark (Drop — fragmented echoes) surren-der // de-de-deep // I give // I give // I-fa-fade ⸻ [Verse 3] Motion-motion-motionless, confined pressed a-a-against the anchor that ruined me Strangely, there’s com-com-comfort in the numb-numb-numbness a peace carved from ab-ab-absence No pain n-now Just no-no-nothing My eyes grow heh-heh-heavy and something shim-shim-shimmers at the edge of sense near and f-f-far blurred and br-br-bright calling with-with-without sound ⸻ [Bridge] This pre-pre-presence stirs emo-emo-emotions I forgot belonged to me feelings I never be-be-believed could sur-sur-survive down here I lived so lo-lo-long curled into my own r-r-ruin refusing the su-su-surface trusting no o-o-one settled safely in the d-d-dark But they… they move clo-clo-closer and some-some-somehow I know them I al-al-always have ⸻ [Final Chorus] And I’m dra-dra-drawn drawn to the w-w-warmth in them the gra-gra-grace the br-br-brightness flooding the deep A light that do-doesn’t de-de-demand A light that sim-sim-simply is (Echoed glitch mantra) rah-rah-radiate reh-reh-radiate ri-ri-rise ri-ri-rise ri-ri-rise
