(Verse 1) Tidal rhythms spanning half a billion years Dense fresh water locked within my veins On a night I cut my losses with clock-time A single drop slides down the folds of oblivion (Verse 2) Amino acid pieces dance in a gentle fever Recalling the darkness of alkaline hydrothermal vents Protons fill the depths of aging skin A flash of prediction error brushes the nucleus accumbens (Chorus) Ah, a soft embrace An inconvenient "other," melting into an amorphous state At the shoreline of dynamic equilibrium A non-semantic encounter where our paths cross Unraveling meanings frozen stiff We sink together into ancient seawater (Verse 3) Floating words, straddling the rhythm Fingertips trace the curve of the antisense strand Cast off the notion of perfect chords A breath bleeds out in the space between repetition and deviation (Bridge) Visceral waves shake the night The DMN falls silent Sinking fingers into a mud-ball of memory Resculpting the heat of that day (Guitar & Synth Solo - Slow & Wet) (Chorus) Ah, a soft embrace The taste of nectar from the maddest liquid in the universe In this dance of dynamic equilibrium No reason is needed—it’s just a social exchange In the gaps of a chest like withered bark The dopamine of life overflows (Outro) With a silence like amniotic fluid Outlines unravel Sleeping within the slack ...A soft embrace (Fade out)
