Lyrics by @coolkidjunji sung by my Persona Meredith -- Verse 1 The tension snaps before I even move, A silent verdict I can’t disprove. My pulse syncs up with the subway rails, A rhythm built from all my private fails. Pre-Chorus I’m not running, I’m just moving crooked, Following a thought I never fully booked. Chorus I’m a red paradox, A warning sign that learned to walk. A quiet storm with broken clocks, Ticking in a language you can’t talk. Don’t try to solve me, I’m not a riddle, I’m a shock— A red paradox. Verse 2 I taste the metal in the midnight air, A hint of truth I’m almost scared to wear. The city hums like it’s inside my chest, A choir of strangers that won’t let me rest. Pre-Chorus I’m not lost, I’m just misaligned, Orbiting the edges of my own mind. Chorus I’m a red paradox, A warning sign that learned to walk. A quiet storm with broken clocks, Ticking in a language you can’t talk. Don’t try to solve me, I’m not a riddle, I’m a shock— A red paradox. Verse 3 I hear a saxophone behind the bar, Playing notes that know exactly who we are. It bends the truth until it almost breaks, A melody that shakes me wide awake. Bridge I don’t need saving, I need friction, A spark that cuts through my conviction. If I burn out, let it be loud— A flare that startles even the crowd. Verse 4 I walk the line between the wrong and right, A tightrope strung across a neon night. If I fall, I fall with open eyes— At least I’ll see the truth I always disguise. Final Chorus I’m a red paradox, A warning sign that learned to walk. A quiet storm with broken clocks, Ticking in a language you can’t talk. Don’t try to solve me, I’m not a riddle, I’m a shock— A red paradox.
