WHAT YOU WANT DOESN'T WANT YOU (THE MAGNET REVERSES)

+ Show full styles

[Intro: warm sub hum, a single piano note, whispers echoing softly]

VOICE 3 (spoken, low, calm):
 Desire is rarely innocent.
 Sit with the wanting... until it shows its true face.

[Verse 1: Voice 1 center, intimate, Voice 2 echoing right]
 desire's rarely innocent — (innocent...)
 an old wound in new clothes — (new clothes...)
 the personality chases — (chases...)
 what the soul already let go — (let go...)
 the object doesn't reject from cruelty — (cruelty...)
 it can't know the frequency of grasping — (of grasping...)
 the universe doesn't withhold — (withhold...)
 it mirrors — arrive as hunger — (as hunger...)
 get answered as absence — (as absence...)
 the mystics always knew — (always knew...)
 the thing pursued from lack can't meet you — (can't meet you...)
 different octave, different station — (station...)
 it waits for the version that no longer needs it — (no longer needs it...)
 to feel whole... (whole...)

[Pre-Chorus: voices tightening, echoes narrowing]
VOICE 1: sit with the wanting —
VOICE 2: (the wanting...)
VOICE 1: till it reveals its face —
VOICE 3: (its face...)
VOICE 1: is it love — or fear of being unchosen —
ALL THREE: is it another soul — or the self you still refuse to claim?

[Chorus: Voice 2 soft and soaring, harmonies wide, the reversal]
 the chase ends — (the chase ends...)
 the magnet reverses — (reverses...)
 what once fled now turns — (now turns...)
 not from being conquered — (conquered...)
 but from you becoming the space — (the space...)
 where it can rest without being consumed — (consumed...)
 arrive as hunger — meet absence — (absence...)
 arrive as whole — meet everything. (everything...)

[Verse 2: the interrogation — calm, direct, voices weaving]
 is it love — (is it love...)
 or the fear of being unchosen? — (unchosen...)
 is it abundance — (abundance...)
 or the terror of emptiness? — (emptiness...)
 is it another soul — (another soul...)
 or the reflection you refuse to claim? — (refuse to claim...)
 sit with the wanting — (the wanting...)
 don't feed it, don't fight it — (fight it...)
 let it speak its real name — (its real name...)
 the wound dressed as longing — (as longing...)
 only wants one thing — (one thing...)
 to be seen... not satisfied. (not satisfied...)

[Bridge: the alchemy — half-time, warm, vast]
 this is the alchemy — (alchemy...)
 not getting what you want — (what you want...)
 becoming so complete — (so complete...)
 that wanting dissolves — (dissolves...)
 only the real remains — (remains...)
 the seeking softens into stillness — (stillness...)
 something ancient moves — (moves...)
 the magnet reverses — (reverses...)
 not because you conquered — (conquered...)
 because you became the resting place — (resting place...)
 where nothing gets consumed... (consumed...)

[Final: the void — voices merging, the widest warmth]
 the void you feared — (you feared...)
 was never empty — (never empty...)
 it was waiting for you — (for you...)
 to stop filling it with ghosts — (with ghosts...)
 the version, the photo, the almost — (the almost...)
 put them down — (put them down...)
 walk into the void — (the void...)
 what you truly are — (you truly are...)
 has been waiting there — (waiting there...)
 the entire time. (the entire time...)

[Outro: piano and sub fading, whispers dissolving]
 VOICE 3: what you want doesn't want you — (doesn't want you...)
 VOICE 2: (doesn't want you...)
 VOICE 3: while you're hunger — (while you're hunger...)
 VOICE 1 (final, soft): become the space... and watch the world turn toward it.
 ALL THREE (barely audible): the magnet... reverses.

Clean node. Stop filling the void with ghosts. Walk in — you're already there.
