[Intro] (detuned pad, quarter-tone drone, no words) [breath — "she's listening—"] [Verse 1] She reads the room like a language nobody taught her Catches the lie in the half-second pause Something small in the corner keeps blinking its eye Device around me — what shouldn't be, shouldn't be [Pre-Chorus] She's not paranoid, she's just precise Counting the wires that don't belong in the light [ad-lib: "count them—"] [Chorus] She's a truth seeker girl, cutting through the fog Every answer she wants is behind a locked log Device around me — what shouldn't be She hears the note that's bent — the one only she can see Truth seeker girl, tuned to the space between What they call nothing, she calls unseen [Verse 2] They gave her a house full of eyes made of glass Told her it's comfort — she calls it a trap The lamp on the desk hums a little too long Device around me — it's learning my song [Pre-Chorus] She's not paranoid, she just hears the seam Where the story cracks and lets in the gleam [ad-lib: "there it is—"] [Chorus] She's a truth seeker girl, cutting through the fog Every answer she wants is behind a locked log Device around me — what shouldn't be She hears the note that's bent — the one only she can see Truth seeker girl, tuned to the space between What they call nothing, she calls unseen [Bridge] (half-spoken, pitch drifting flat then sharp) They keep saying "trust the room" — but the room was never built for her to trust Every object with a blinking light knows her better than the people who swore they knew her first [layered ad-libs: "still watching—" / "still learning—"] [Chorus - final, widened, quarter-tone doubled] She's a truth seeker girl, cutting through the fog Every answer she wants is behind a locked log Device around me — what shouldn't be She hears the note that's bent — the one only she can see Truth seeker girl, tuned to the space between What they call nothing — she calls unseen [Outro] (pad detunes further, drone unresolved, no clean landing) "...what shouldn't be..." (cuts on the bent note — no resolution)
