Fractal Tongue

[Verse 1] Spiral in the sunflower head River bends like a question mark Ice cracks Drawing lightning veins Same curve in the ember and the dark Orbit of a coffee cup stain Echo of a shell in my hand Every little loop in the grain Saying what I barely understand [Chorus] There’s a fractal tongue Speaking in patterns Folding in Unfolding out again Logic of the paradox Holding what it shatters Meaning in the pieces as they spin What I leave unsaid Still completes the sentence Silence is the line beneath the range Structure like a breathing chest Rising into tension Falling into living Shifting change [Verse 2] Footprints fading in the wet sand Next wave copies Then rewrites the trace Clouds split Recombine as they pass Same storm in a different face You and I in a quiet room Pauses fitting neatly in the seams Truth walks the perimeter While we trade half-finished dreams [Chorus] There’s a fractal tongue Speaking in patterns Folding in Unfolding out again Logic of the paradox Holding what it shatters Meaning in the pieces as they spin What I leave unsaid Still completes the sentence Silence is the line beneath the range Structure like a breathing chest Rising into tension Falling into living Shifting change [Bridge] Some forms only live in motion Some names only work as scars I trust the rule that keeps on breaking The map that redraws the stars (oh…) [Chorus] There’s a fractal tongue Speaking in patterns Folding in Unfolding out again Logic of the paradox Holding what it shatters Meaning in the pieces as they spin What we leave unsaid Still completes the sentence Quiet as a seed beneath the rain Structure like a breathing chest Rising into tension Falling Into living Shifting change
