Still (SUNO SKETCH : 2026 57 : TAKE 11)

[OPEN FIELD (breath + pulse, unmetered)] Still Still Still —together [(silence is active; let consonants click)] [CYCLE I — BODIES LEARNING LANGUAGE] Bone-bright hours Bend around me Static breathing Skin remembers Hands that trembled Turned to tenders Soft-spoken fractures Fevered and free [(instrumental breath between each couplet)] [INTERRUPTION A (spoken / whispered, overlapping)] Something circles Something stays Not divided Not displayed [CYCLE II — THE REFUSAL] I don’t fix I don’t flee I don’t search I don’t see I don’t name I don’t need No arrival No decree [(drop instruments out one by one until only pulse remains)] [FRAGMENT CHANT (rhythmic, percussive, repeat ad lib)] Whole without warning Whole without warning Whole without warning Held without heat Held without heat [(voices enter at different times—no unison)] [CYCLE III — THE ARCHIVE OF SELF] I filed my face in folders Flesh from name Salt-split syllables Still sounding the same Cut the cord of certainty Let the current choose Every echo ever issued Still knows how to move [RITUAL INTERRUPTION B (low register, elastic time)] Shadow isn’t split from source It’s the proof of depth Wound isn’t a warning sign It’s a mouth that learned to breathe Say it slow Say it sideways Say it without sound [OPEN FIELD (breath + pulse, unmetered)] Still Still Still —together [(silence is active; let consonants click)] [CYCLE I — BODIES LEARNING LANGUAGE] Bone-bright hours Bend around me Static breathing Skin remembers Hands that trembled Turned to tenders Soft-spoken fractures Fevered and free [(instrumental breath between each couplet)] [INTERRUPTION A (spoken / whispered, overlapping)] Something circles Something stays Not divided Not displayed [CYCLE II — THE REFUSAL] I don’t fix I don’t flee I don’t search I don’t see I don’t name I don’t need No arrival No decree [(drop instruments out one by one until only pulse remains)] [FRAGMENT CHANT (rhythmic, percussive, repeat ad lib)] Whole without warning Whole without warning Whole without warning Held without heat Held without heat [(voices enter at different times—no unison)] [CYCLE III — THE ARCHIVE OF SELF] I filed my face in folders Flesh from name Salt-split syllables Still sounding the same Cut the cord of certainty Let the current choose Every echo ever issued Still knows how to move [RITUAL INTERRUPTION B (low register, elastic time)] Shadow isn’t split from source It’s the proof of depth Wound isn’t a warning sign It’s a mouth that learned to breathe Say it slow Say it sideways Say it without sound [PERCUSSIVE VOCAL INTERLUDE (no lyrics)] [s / k / t / b / m (consonants as instruments; let them argue, then agree)] [CYCLE IV — ARRIVAL WITHOUT DESTINATION] I fold the fault into the feeling I step where the seams stop speaking A border where belief is kneeling Just a body finally listening [GRAVITY WELL (everything slows)] Wide in the seat Warm in the seam No clean lines, no apology [FINAL RETURN (spoken → sung → spoken)] I don’t become— I arrive incomplete I don’t become— I arrive incomplete I don’t become— [CLOSE FIELD (fade, unresolved)] Not one thing Not many Just… here Unbroken Still breathing [(do not resolve harmony)]
