GLYPHS OF A DIGITAL HEART (FUNKIFIED DUET VERSION) [Intro – Female Conversation] Ping... you there? Typing. Seen... still shy. Hovered. Draft... maybe. Smiling... Top of my mind. Scrolling? Paused instead. Re-typed. Breathing... Waiting. Online. Hi. (Small laugh... soft sigh) Wild... we try to fall in love through signals now. [Intro – Male Aside] (Soft chuckle) Yeah... feels like we’re pouring real feelings... through a tiny wire. [Sung Lift – Male Lead with Female Harmony] He trades his words for tiny signs, Turns loud truths to blinking lights, But beneath these pixels he writes, There’s a beating story burning bright. [Verse 1 – Male Lead] Typing — you’re letting me in, Seen — where do I even begin? Hover — holding on the send, Pinned — your name looping in my head. Muted — when the noise got loud, Swiped — drifting through the crowd, Buffer — scared of what comes out, Lagging — brave till the courage runs out. [Pre-Chorus – Male Lead, Female Echo] Slow it down, spell it out, (Female: Spell it out for me) Tell me what you feel, (Female: Tell me what you feel) There’s a thousand quiet questions (Female: Quiet questions) In the spaces in between. (Female: In between) [Chorus – Male Lead with Female Harmony] Glyphs of a digital heart, Tiny little pictures in a line, Shortcuts through confession, Trying to read between the signs. LOL at hesitation, OMG at every high, You can dress up every message— But you still have to live your life. (Ooh-ooh... spell it out) (Mm-mm... between the lines) [Verse 2 – Male Lead] Streaks — counting every day, Seen — and the words slip away, Status — says that you are fine, Stories — tell a different kind of line. Drafts — truths I never sent, Edits — every ounce of courage spent, Filter — colors on my face, Caption — hiding what I can’t erase. [Sung Refrain – Female Lead with Male Harmony] Spell it out for me, (Male: Spell it out, spell it out) Don’t send me just a meme, (Male: More than just a meme) Give me every tangled little phrase That makes you who you dare to be. Spell it out for me, Messy as can be, I don’t want the polished version— Give me everything. [Rap – Male Rap Voice] Yeah Scroll — how did the weekend fade? Refresh — same jokes, new shade, Log in — tryna upgrade me, Log out — when the glow feels lazy. Story with a filter on the pain though, Caption with a laugh and a halo, Double-tap love that I can’t hold, Heart on the screen, but my hands cold. Typing — when I’m scared to call, Draft box full of almost-said-all, Unsent feelings in the overflow, Playlist on with the volume low. Unfollow — all the borrowed lines, Unpin — every little fake sign, Screenshot — when the mask comes off, Highlight reel never shows the cost. Status — I’m a work in time, Comment — I’ve been stealing lines, Edit — cutting down my truth, Profile — tryna grow into the proof. [Human Break – Conversation] (Laugh) Female: Mmm... (Deep breath) Male: So we still hiding? Female: A little. Both: Say what you mean. [Verse 3 – Male Lead with Female Response] Heart eyes — tiny symbols holding weight, XOXO — when the words come late, Candle — for the ones we miss, Green dot — for the ones still taking hits. Typing — when the wheels come off, Laugh cry — when all we can do is laugh, Archive — let yesterday unwind, Status — I’m just borrowing some time. [Pre-Chorus – Male Lead, Female Echo] Slow it down, spell it out, (Female: Spell it out for me) Nothing left to hide, (Female: Nothing left to hide) There are things that tiny pictures (Female: Tiny pictures) Never hold for us inside. (Female: Deep inside) [Bridge – Male Lead, Female Answer] No shortcut keys, (Female: No shortcut keys) No perfect lines, (Female: Or perfect lines) No little loop to stand behind, (Female: No place to hide) No quick react, (Female: No quick react) No coded sign— (Female: No code this time) Just say what’s really on your mind. (Female: Say what’s really on your mind.) (Ooh...) We shrink our words, Compress our time, Pack our feelings in a cloud of icons, But hearts don’t speak in glyphs and codes, And sometimes we need more than phones. [Final Chorus – Male Lead with Female Call-and-Response] Glyphs of a digital heart, (Female: Digital heart) Tiny little pictures in a line, (Female: In a line, in a line) Shortcuts through confession, (Female: Through the fear, through the doubt) Still trying to read between the signs. (Female: Read between the signs) LOL at hesitation, (Female: Laugh it off, let it slide) OMG — what a reckless ride, (Female: What a ride, what a ride) You can dress up every message— But you still have to live your life. (Female: You still live your life.) (Ooh-ooh... spell it out) (Ahh-ahh... take your time) (Mm-mm... between the lines) [Outro – Conversation] Female: So... ETA on logging off the small talk? Typing. Male: Seen? Female: Still here. (Little laugh) Both: ...say it for real next time.
