[Intro - Distant sonar. Static. Low mechanical pulse beneath the sound of rain] [Verse] I feel the pressure moving in again Neon ghosts are crawling through the rain Broken signals flicker through the dark Every dying light leaves another mark Thunder rolls across the ocean floor Like the world remembers what we were before I chase your frequency through the noise A fading signal buried in the void [Pre-Chorus] The storm keeps calling But I don't run anymore I hear you breathing Somewhere beyond the shore [Chorus] It's always calm after the storm When the dead lights start to glow She's standing where the black tide breaks Like something I was meant to know Why did we have to swim Through all these poisonous waters Just to find the face of love? [Verse 2] A tornado turns beneath my skull Old memories crash like waves against the hull I never slept, I only drifted on Through endless nights where every star was gone Half-built cities sink beneath the foam No transmission ever leads me home Then through the static, through the rain I hear your voice calling my name [Pre-Chorus] The storm is breaking And the horizon starts to breathe The water's clearing There's something waiting underneath [Chorus] It's always calm after the storm When the dead lights start to glow She's standing where the black tide breaks Like something I was meant to know Why did we have to swim Through all these poisonous waters Just to find the face of love? [Bridge] Let the old world drown Let the sirens fade Let the machines rust In the graves they made If there's still a pulse Beneath this poisoned sea I'll follow it down If it leads you back to me [Final Chorus] It's always calm after the storm But nothing stays the same She's standing in the neon rain And whispering my name Why did we have to swim Through all these poisonous waters Just to find the face of love? Maybe we were never lost Maybe we were only learning What was worth surviving for [Outro] The storm is gone... The ocean still remembers... I can finally hear you. [sonar ping]
