SIGNAL DRIFT [INTRO] [Radio static] [Soft radar pulse] [Ocean ambience] [Slow synth arpeggio] [VERSE 1] I marked the bearing on the chart Tracked the frequency for days Every transmission left a trail Leading somewhere through the haze I thought I had it figured out I thought I knew which way to go But every answer opened up Another question I didn't know The signal moved The shoreline changed The distance shifted with the tide Like something just beyond the edge Of where the world decides [PRE-CHORUS] I keep turning every dial I keep scanning every sky Still the mystery keeps moving Just beyond my line of sight [CHORUS] Every time I get closer It moves a little farther away Every time I think I've found it It changes shape Every time I get closer The horizon starts to drift Like the signal wants to teach me How to search instead of finding it [DROP] Signal drift Signal drift Signal drift [VERSE 2] Old coordinates become outdated New ones fade before they land Every map becomes a rough sketch Drawn by an uncertain hand Some nights I hear it crystal clear Some nights it's buried in the noise Some nights I swear it's calling me Some nights I think I imagined the voice Yet every road Every harbor Every strange and distant light Seems connected by a thread Disappearing through the night [PRE-CHORUS] I keep turning every dial I keep scanning every sky Still the mystery keeps moving Just beyond my line of sight [CHORUS] Every time I get closer It moves a little farther away Every time I think I've found it It changes shape Every time I get closer The horizon starts to drift Like the signal wants to teach me How to search instead of finding it [DROP] Signal drift Signal drift Signal drift [RADAR SWEEP] [BRIDGE] Maybe there was never meant to be A final destination Maybe every mystery survives By staying just beyond explanation Maybe every map ends somewhere And every signal keeps moving on Maybe the search is the shoreline And the journey is the song [BUILD] Closer Farther Closer Farther Turning Searching Listening Learning Closer Farther Closer Farther [FINAL CHORUS] Every time I get closer It moves a little farther away Every time I think I've found it It changes shape Every time I get closer The horizon starts to drift Like the signal wants to teach me How to search instead of finding it Every time I get closer It moves a little farther away Signal drift Signal drift [OUTRO] [Radio static] [Ocean ambience] [Distant voice:] "Continue searching..."
