Lyrics:
Verse 1
In the marrow where the years sit heavy,
Some cells learn how to outlast the crowd,
They hum too bright, they pull power steady,
Like a hidden wire turned up too loud.

Pre-Chorus
A single switch in the letters we carry,
Loosens the locks on the nighttime code,
So the engines rise, and the charge runs wary—
A high-tension road.

Chorus
Turn that voltage to zero, let the bright line fade,
If you live by the spark, you can’t dodge the blade,
We aim for the pull that you can’t replace,
Drop the membrane sky, watch the clone lose its place.
Turn that voltage to zero—clean and clear,
A future in the dark that we don’t have to fear.

Verse 2
Screens glow green with a steep oxygen climb,
Spare capacity like a secret reserve,
But the same high charge buys borrowed time,
And a targeted key can make it swerve.

Bridge
Long-chain messenger, riding the gradient in,
Finding the rooms where the charge is high,
Shuts down the breath, lets the leak begin,
Opens the gate—mitochondria sigh.

Final Chorus
Turn that voltage to zero, let the bright line fade,
If you live by the spark, you can’t dodge the blade,
We aim for the pull that you can’t replace,
Drop the membrane sky, watch the clone lose its place.
Turn that voltage to zero—hold the line,
From crowded marrow to a cleaner time.
