[Blast-in - starts on lyric pickup] [hook] [Anthemic chants] whenever.... (Choral anthem: whenever.....) whenever..... whenever..... [Fast prechorus] Forever, whenever, however the doubt keeps circling back to the sound, they venture and veer through the why, disappear, then return, return, rooted enough to interfere with what the soul will persevere, stay with it, stay with it, don’t let go now. Longing moves like pressure, tightening breath into form, closer and closer the hunger remembers the warmth, signal into need, the pattern pulls back in, again and again, again and again. Heart held in tension humming under the skin, hard edges strike then soften, bend but don’t bend, carving a passage through ache into motion, right now, right now, don’t slow down. [Verse] whenever whenever whenever [Chorus][Sighs and hangs on last word, open vocals] Once... close....... One bonds... another....... aah... Hearts... Twist........ When to.geth.er ......aah... [Mini-Soliloquy 1] Heart starts to slow, the pulse begins to fade........ I can't get my rhythm to go........ Whenever we're apart, the shadows hold me close........ Splits apart my heart........ [Catchy Chorus/Hook] [Vocoded lyrics] (Choral anthem: whenever.....) whenever..... [Vocoded lyrics] (Choral anthem: whenever.....) whenever..... [Fast prechorus] Whenever it bends and it bohs, the desire stays now, they fade then bloom, they sever then bind, venture, veer, reappear on a root to interfere, make it through, make it through, still here. Expanse opens wide where want learns to breathe, reach for it, reach for it, open wide, break but don’t break, the cadence holds form, not this time, not this time. Heart in the open, pulled back again, syllables spill then settle to ground, forever whenever however it sounds, here, right here, return, return here!!! [Vocoded lyrics] (Choral anthem: whenever.....) whenever..... [Chorus][Sighs and hangs on last word, open vocals] Once... close....... One bonds... another....... aah... Hearts... Twist........ When to.geth.er ......aah... [Narration ] When I'm in your grace, the tide begins to race........ Racing into the fold........ Breath lingers in the space between........ Motion drifts along the trace........ [Chorus/Hook narration] [Vocoded lyrics] (Choral anthem: whenever.....) whenever..... [Vocoded lyrics] (Choral anthem: whenever.....) whenever..... [Vocoded lyrics] (Choral anthem: whenever.....) [Into a melodic sigh to open wistful vocals] whenever..... [Verse Block 3] Together we drift, lights swirling in the glow........ Apart yet drawn, our rhythm guides the night........ We.will.see-ee...... [Hang and pause] [Mini-Soliloquy 3, clean refrain no breaths between] Who reaches out for me........ [Hold arpeggio on "here"] Where do we go from here........ What lingers in the echoes........ Whenever apart, my heartbeat feels no haste........ Heartbeats echo through the haze, chasing every trace........ Breath finds the pulse, flowing with the space........ [Chorus][Sighs and hangs on last word, open vocals] Once... close....... One bonds... another....... aah... Hearts... twist........ When to.geth.er ......aah... [Riff interplay, belted] [Pause 10s] [Blast-out]
