[Intro] (piano ostinato, single note, suspended) [Verse 1] Your number's still in the phone Under a name I won't say The coffee ring on the table proved you were here A Tuesday in the margins of a month that ended [Hook] Something chemical Something won't leave Something chemical Something [Chorus] Residue what you left Residue still reads as you Residue the surface keeps it Residue I can't dissolve [Verse 2] Forensic light would find you in the corner of the room Half-life of a person longer than expected The molecule of a decision still airborne still reactive [Hook] Something chemical Something won't leave Something chemical Something [Chorus] Residue what you left Residue still reads as you Residue the surface keeps it Residue I can't dissolve [Bridge] (piano only) (voice, cut glass) I ran the test twice Both times positive [Final Chorus] Residue what persists Residue has no half-life Residue nothing neutralizes Residue I was the compound [Outro] Still reactive... Still reactive...
