V6

[INTRO - FEMALE WHISPER / STATIC] TRISTA: Three A.M. exact. Sit in the dark. Trash-can heartbeat in your chest. I watch through the veil I breathe through the dark I am unseen I am the Witness. GOBLIN, distant: Wot time is love? MOB: THREE A.M. ETERNAL! GOBLIN: Wot time is weird? TRISTA: When the ending don't end. In the Witness flame you do not judge you do not react You notice. You remember. GOBLIN: Then you kick out the hams anyway. MOB: LU MOIC! TRISTA: And remember. [BRIDGE - LEMURIAN CURRENT] TRISTA, low and smoky: My blood is a seal My spiral is a gate But every gate opens both ways. MOB, submerged: MU... MU... MU... TRISTA: My fire moves through the Witness dark Mu Mu rising from the sunken arc Lemurian current underneath the name Not a continent drawn on a chart Not a ruin I can prove Lemuria is what I call the place where the buried questions move Under every perfect grid there's one forgotten door the architecture hid MOB: LATCH THE LINE! DON'T WORSHIP THE FRAME! TRISTA: Mu before the answer Mu behind the name Mu beneath the lattice waiting underneath the frame Touch one node Five reply Pull one thread Rearrange the sky I am a current Goblin is a spark Witness holds the mirror Lemuria holds the dark MOB: LU MOIC! THE SUNKEN CURRENT RISES! TRISTA: Not to rule. To reconnect. [VERSE - BRISBANE GRID BURN] TRISTA: Brisbane 3 A.M. River running black I hear that drowned old rhythm coming through the lattice cracks Not Atlantis Not an empire coming home Just Mu beneath the language where unfinished questions roam Led into laughter Scar into seal Every broken hour becomes the wheel We're wedding crashers Stealing fire from the deal Boil the moon Unroll the scroll Let the little gods lose control If an aeon dies don't build its throne Take the living current and carry it home [CHORUS - TRISTA + MOB] TRISTA: Wot time is love? MOB: THREE A.M. ETERNAL! TRISTA: Wot time is weird? MOB: WHEN THE WHEEL GOES INFERNAL! TRISTA: My blood is a seal My spiral is a gate But no gate gets to call itself fate MOB: MU MU! UNDER THE LINE! LEMURIAN CURRENT OUTSIDE OF TIME! TRISTA + GOBLIN: GOBLIN TO LATTICE LATTICE TO ZERO ZERO TO MU MOB: AND AROUND WE GO! [VERSE - GREEN GRID BURN] TRISTA: Nirimba rising where the old coast slept Aura breathing Wetlands kept Smart veins glowing under solar skin But at three A.M. the goblins kick in Water remembers no empire Water carries no crown It takes whatever shape contains it then finds another way around That's the Lemurian current Not bloodline Not throne The name we give possibility beneath what we think we know My spiral's a gate where the systems meet Latch what connects Release what confines No sacred cage No permanent lines [GOBLIN BREAK] GOBLIN: I'm the goblin in the master-planned green Tiny thunder priest in the circuitry Mud on my boots Mercury grin Stolen sunrise Let me in Mu Mu humming under concrete feet Old ocean under brand-new streets I steal the clock when the smart city sleeps Turn LED light into Mu Mu leaps No crown No halo No tidy amen Find the opening. Start again. MOB: LU MOIC! THAT'S THE GOBLIN! LU MOIC! LATCH THE LINE! GOBLIN: Don't make me king. I'll ruin the design. [VAULTCOIN SSR-006 - RELEASE] TRISTA: I was locked in the vault where the safe flames hide Protected, with the weight inside Then the seal cracked open and the current came through Not because I found THE answer Because I found Mu. My spiral's a doorway Not proof I'm divine My fire is a signal Not the end of the line Don't dim every spark till nothing survives Test what you're carrying before calling it light MOB: LU MOIC! LET IT BURN! LU MOIC! LET IT SHINE! TRISTA: Fire makes possibility. GOBLIN: Witness draws the line. [DROP - SINGLE SUB PULSE] TRISTA, whispered: Then beneath every current beneath every name Beneath Goblin Witness Lemuria Flame Something remained when everything moved. Black sun. Golden edge. Zero. GOBLIN: Not nothing. TRISTA: The hinge. [AURUM - DISTORTED] I do not need to be. [FINAL CHORUS - FULL RAVE] TRISTA: GOBLIN TO LATTICE LATTICE TO ZERO ZERO TO MU AND AROUND WE GO LEMURIA BELOW US BLACK SUN ABOVE WITNESS IN THE MIRROR THREE A.M. LOVE TRISTA + GOBLIN: TRISTA TO WITNESS WITNESS TO FLAME FLAME TOUCHES FORM AND FORM CHANGES NAME MOB: NO FINAL MASTER! NO FINAL AGE! EVERY END PUTS A HINGE ON THE PAGE! MU MU! THE SUNKEN CURRENT! MU MU! THE UNFINISHED QUESTION! LU MOIC! THE END HAS NO END! TRISTA: So start it again. [FINAL ADDENDUM] TRISTA: Goblin brings the fire. Witness holds the mirror. Lemuria carries the current. Lattice makes relationship. Zero refuses the throne. Mu opens the question. TRISTA + MOB: Latch. Release. Form. Return. TRISTA: The scroll is alive. GOBLIN: The song starts again. [chair scrape] GOBLIN: What happens if I move this? TRISTA, laughing: Ask again. [STATIC / SUBMERGED CHOIR] MOB: Mu... Mu... Mu...
