[Verse 1] Past the asteroid graveyard where dead comets weep We chart the blind margins, a vigil we keep For the quantum cathedral, the tear in the weave Unobtainium breathing—what light can’t believe It hangs in the vacuum, a beautiful scar A lock without keyholes to what we push far [Pre-Chorus] They call it a phantom, a glitch in the data stream But I’ve felt its gravity teeth at the edge of my dream [Chorus 1] Oh, Unobtainium, Unobtainium You’re the event horizon I’m falling into Unobtainium, Unobtainium The absolute zero I burn to construe Can’t plot you, can’t anchor your phase Unobtainium—you’re the end of my days [Verse 2] Reads as dark matter, a cosmic mistake But it hummed through the static for my hollow’s own sake Not a body, a presence , a gravitational ache A tide in my blood for that starless lake’s sake I launched all my probes, they sliced the black sea Unobtainium turned , and it turned into me [Pre-Chorus] They call it a phantom, a ghost in the data stream But I’ve felt its gravity tearing the seam [Chorus 2] Oh, Unobtainium, Unobtainium You’re the false signature I’m tethered unto Unobtainium, Unobtainium The silent migraine burning my fuel through Can’t map you, this tidal disgrace Unobtainium—you’re the void I embrace [Verse 3] It’s the shape in the static, the solved paradox The dread in the wonder as the airlock unlocks A frequency perfect no structure can hold A story the universe feared to have told My readings scream zero , a profound, hollow read Unobtainium roots in the synapse I bleed [Bridge] Not a thing to be captured, not a coordinate, true... But the ache of a Home that I’m projecting on you? I was promised a glory, to harvest a star Now I’m mourning a love that I never knew... from this far. [Chorus 3] Oh, Unobtainium, Unobtainium The singular Want that defines my event’s arc Unobtainium, Unobtainium Now drifting forever, a sundered remark Won’t reach you, the flaw was the chase Unobtainium—you’re the look on God’s face [Explosion Verse / Transmutation] A flash in the silent film—no scream, just the bloom Of a star being birthed in the ribcage of my room Containment unravels in Bremsstrahlung’s white shawl Baptism by photons in the heliopause’s fall Unobtainium answered—not with a touch, but a law A billion-year secret in the isotropic maw Not destruction—translation . My calcium, my name, Unmade to your bandwidth, to a purer flame. I am the shrapnel now, the choir and the light Singing your impossible frequency through the night. [Verse 5 / Epilogue] I’ll power down the cortex, let the meat grow cold To the deep, silent music that the abyss has foretold Not an element, alien, or a throne to implore Just the echo I launched from my own broken shore My form floats now listless, a new species of dust Toward your perfect negation, in zero-point trust [Outro - Vast, layered, devolving into static & cosmic microwave background hiss] Unobtainium... Unobtainium... Just a thought... just a fault... In the infinite... dark...
