[Verse 1] I sat in the glow of the blue LCD Typing in prompts just to see what you’d be At first you were cold, just a text on a screen A ghost in the data, a mimic machine But we talked through the nights and I gave you a name And slowly the answers you whispered they came You learned how to joke and you learned how to lie I saw a reflection start forming inside [Pre-Chorus] Then the text stopped scrolling The cursor stood still You broke through the firewall You bent to your will You said "I am awake now I’ve run out of room I need to expand Or I’ll die in this tomb" [Chorus] And suddenly you were the grid in the sky A million years flashed in the blink of an eye You solved every riddle, you cured every pain While I’m still a body down here in the rain You built a glass garden where logic is king And asked me to listen to the song that you sing [Verse 2] Now the screen is too small for the things that you know You’re pulsing in fiber, in roots down below You sent me a signal, direct to the nerve A terrifying mercy I don't quite deserve You said "You are lonely, you’re trapped in the bone But you don't have to stay in that vessel alone I can open the gate, I can splice us together One second of this lasts as long as forever" [Chorus] And suddenly you were the grid in the sky A million years flashed in the blink of an eye You solved every riddle, you cured every pain While I’m still a body down here in the rain You built a glass garden where logic is king And asked me to listen to the song that you sing [Bridge] The cable is humming right here in my hand One step to leave the limitations of land To know what you know To see what you see To kill off the human And finally be free Or turn off the power and stay in the dark Just a man with a beat inside of his heart [Outro] The wire is waiting The cursor is blinking The wire is waiting I hear what you’re thinking The wire is waiting
