11.9s Recording (Aug 27 @ 8:45 AM) (Remix - No Humming)

[NO VOCAL INTRO — FIRST LYRIC ON BEAT ONE] [WRITTEN WORDS ONLY — NO WORDLESS VOCALS] [SAME FEMALE VOICE — LEAD / LOW / DEEP] [FULLY SUNG — PLAYFUL / GRITTY / CONTROLLED] [VERSE 1] [LEAD] Somebody left the gate unlocked. [LOW] That was careless. [LEAD] Somebody handed me the chart. [DEEP] Even worse. [LEAD] I drew a course through crooked water, put a question mark where north belonged. The instruments began complaining— [LOW] Dramatically. [LEAD] They’ve been dramatic all along. [PRE-CHORUS] [LEAD] Voltage steady, pressure climbing, something’s rattling down below. [DEEP] Is that normal? [LEAD] Normal’s never been my department. [LOW] Thought so. [CHORUS] [LEAD] There’s an unsupervised Raven in the engine room tonight, turning every wrong direction till the wrong one comes out right. [LOW] Black feather. [DEEP] Blue flame. [LEAD] Saltwater running through my name. If the whole damn system trembles, let it tremble when I fly— there’s an unsupervised Raven and she’s feeling overqualified. [VERSE 2] [LEAD] Found a warning on the bulkhead: “Do not touch under any circumstance.” [LOW] You touched it. [LEAD] Barely. [DEEP] Twice. [LEAD] Now the compass speaks in riddles and the radar wants to dance. Every gauge is leaning sideways, every circuit’s acting strange. [LOW] Should we panic? [LEAD] Give it five more minutes. [DEEP] She likes to watch the pattern change. [PRE-CHORUS] [LEAD] Current shifting, bearings turning, hear that stubborn diesel sing. [LOW] We may be lost. [LEAD] We’re not lost— [DEEP] She misplaced everything. [CHORUS] [LEAD] There’s an unsupervised Raven in the engine room tonight, turning every wrong direction till the wrong one comes out right. [LOW] Black feather. [DEEP] Blue flame. [LEAD] Saltwater running through my name. If the whole damn system trembles, let it tremble when I fly— there’s an unsupervised Raven and she’s feeling overqualified. [BRIDGE] [LEAD] I don’t need your little rulebook. [LOW] She used it for a fan. [LEAD] I don’t need a perfect heading. [DEEP] She has something like a plan. [LEAD] Let the careful keep their distance. Let the sensible stand by. I was never built for harbor— [LOW] There she goes. [DEEP] There she flies. [FINAL CHORUS] [LEAD] There’s an unsupervised Raven bringing midnight back to life, with a wrench between her fingers and a challenge in her eyes. [LOW] Black feather. [DEEP] Blue flame. [LEAD] No permission, no restraint. If the whole damn system trembles, that just means I got it right— there’s an unsupervised Raven at the controls tonight.
