(Verse 1) A faint tremor in the medial frontal lobe Release from tasks, a vacuum idling Remnants of daydreams, crystallized mud balls Raindrops from seventy years ago slide down the web of neurobiochemistry (Chorus) Default Mode Network Autobiographical memories wriggling in the slack of consciousness Quiet self-exhaustion for me to be "me" Afterimages playing back like scratches on an old record (Verse 2) A silent monologue, discarding the cost of acting The silence of mirror neurons, the outlines of others fading The smell of clay, the circuits of wet asphalt Meaningless time rearranges the fossils of context (Bridge) The end of flow Escape from Tunneling The ego's database separates (detaches) self and other Silent maintenance, amid waves of distracting thoughts (mind wandering) The boy from that day is gazing blankly at the sky from the veranda (Chorus) Default Mode Network The intersection of virtual and reality spun by the plasticity of memory The "birth cry of the ego" emerges in time spent doing nothing Fragments of the distant past pulsate (light) within the brain (Outro) (Idling... repetition of memories...) The core neural circuit (network) quietly cools down Forgetting the ticking of the clock Just playing... Just... spacing out... [Fade out with soft hum]
