[Intro – soft guitar arpeggio] [Verse 1] The monitors glow like paper moons The hum of air vents keeps the tune Somewhere a train slides under streets I read the news no one will keep [Pre-Chorus] The phones don’t ring, the lights don’t fade It’s morning now for yesterday [Chorus] I’m the fluorescent dawn, unseen and awake Talking to ghosts in a windowless space The hours fall sideways, lost in the glare The world’s asleep — but I’m still there [Verse 2] There’s laughter faint in another time Emails drift like warning signs My body’s here, my head’s next week I chase the dream I never sleep [Pre-Chorus] The clock hands blur, the buzz remains Another shift begins again [Chorus] I’m the fluorescent dawn, unseen and awake Talking to ghosts in a windowless space The hours fall sideways, lost in the glare The world’s asleep — but I’m still there [Bridge – guitar tremolo builds] I step outside to a hollow blue A quiet street, an empty view The daylight stings like something new And fades before I’m halfway through [Chorus] I’m the fluorescent dawn, unseen and awake Talking to ghosts in a windowless space The hours fall sideways, lost in the glare The world’s asleep — but I’m still there [Outro – slow fade, bass and snare alone] And I’m still there Still there
