Schrödinger's Almost

[Intro] (Soft guitar, reverb-heavy) In superposition we existed Both together and alone Wave functions never collapsing Probability overthrown [Verse 1] I built cathedrals from her laughter in the space between the stars Mapped constellations in her freckles, coded wishes into pulsars She was entropy and order, Heisenberg in human form I was orbiting a goddess through a quantum thunderstorm Every glance was a paradox, every word a double slit Where observation changed the outcome of a future that won't fit [Chorus 1] We're hearts in beta forever, never reaching release Debugging love in languages that entropy won't cease I'm writing love letters to a dying star That burned out light-years before I knew who you are Forever incomplete, forever undefined Two variables that never could align [Verse 2] She talked about dark matter with love like it was tangible Said "Some forces hold the universe while staying intangible" I wonder if she meant us in that cosmic metaphor Two bodies bound by gravity but never touching, nothing more I existed in her footnotes, a theory she'd never prove The girl in the event horizon, and I could never move [Chorus 2] We're hearts in beta forever, stuck in endless compile An emotion overflow that crashes every trial These love letters to a dying star Keep bouncing back like echoes from too far Forever recursive, forever in a loop Two parallel lines that can't regroup [Bridge] [Building intensity] Time dilation when she's near me Speed of light when she's away I'm red-shifting into nothing While she's blue-shifting into day We're causality inverted We're entangled but not here Spooky action at a distance But the distance is just fear [Verse 3] Saw a singularity in a wedding dress that I would never see Walking down an aisle that only exists in probability Unwritten vows in a broken timeline scattered through the void Where every choice splits into worlds where we were both destroyed Or where we never met at all, or where we got it right But in this branch of reality, I'm alone again tonight [Pre-Chorus] And maybe in another life, another universal code We're not just theoretical on this quantum road Maybe somewhere in the multiverse I found the words to say But here I'm just an observer watching you decay [Chorus 3] We're hearts in beta forever, and the patch won't ever drop This emotion overflow just makes the system stop These love letters to a dying star Are fossil records of a supernova scar Forever in revision, forever not quite whole Two equations missing variables to solve [Verse 4] [Stripped down, vulnerable] I understand entropy now in ways I never should That chaos isn't evil, and order isn't good That some things fall apart because that's how physics flows And orbiting a goddess means she'll never really know That I would've rewritten constants, torn the fabric just to try To be the one exception to the laws that make us die [Special Bridge] [Explosive, all instruments] We are uncompiled fate! A program never run! The girl in the event horizon swallowed by the sun! Singularity in a wedding dress I conjured from a dream! We're the space between the atoms, we're the gaps between the seams! Dark matter with love—invisible but there! Holding universes together through the empty cosmic air! [Final Verse] [Quiet again, just voice and single guitar] So here's to love that never was, to timelines that won't bend To orbiting forever, to the message you won't send To being Schrödinger's maybe in a box you'll never open To love letters to a dying star, to words I've never spoken [Pre-Chorus Alternative] And if there's an afterlife beyond this quantum cage Where wave functions all collapse into a single, final page I hope we get a rewrite, hope the variables align Hope the code compiles correctly in the next space-time [Final Chorus] [Full band, soaring] We were hearts in beta forever—now I'm letting go the keys This emotion overflow was always just disease These love letters to a dying star Will drift through space long after I'm gone far Forever was a concept that we never got to test Two particles that never could coalesce We were unwritten vows in a broken timeline's grave Uncompiled fate, unsent, unsigned, unsaved The girl in the event horizon, singularity in white I'm finally escaping your gravitational light [Outro] [Fading out slowly] In superposition we stay Both together and alone Wave functions never collapsing Probability overthrown Never collapsing... Never known... [End]
