They Said Friction Was The Solution

They said friction was the solution They said rub hard enough, spark the motion Veins of metal, hearts of stone Every collision carves a path unknown Cracks in the ceiling, shadows crawl We dance on the edge, waiting for the fall Twist the silence, bend the air Whispers collide in the open stare Pressure mounts, the bones will sing Grinding teeth, and broken strings No comfort here, no gentle way Friction becomes the only sway They said friction was the solution Fire in the veins, chaos in motion Push against the walls that bind Breathe the tension, unconfined Silent sparks in the hidden seam Every shadow carries a dream Touch the edge, feel the pull The world ignites in the lull Grinding sky, crushing light Every friction burns a rite Twist the night, bend the day Nothing left but the path we fray They said friction was the solution Fire in the veins, chaos in motion Push against the walls that bind Breathe the tension, unconfined Hold the spark within your hand Friction turns to shifting sand Nothing dies, everything bends In the friction, the journey ends
