Array of Light

[Intro]

As I record my growing pains

I don't wanna be caught eating paint

I used to think I only had two states

Forcibly yellow or a default grey

[Verse 1]

You said, "We don't need money to have a good time"

While smoking cigarettes you found in an ashtray

You said, "Don't worry about tomorrow"

3 AM, coffee from a sachet

We'll burn those bridges when we come to it

We'll sew our stitches with the bass drum hits

And I know you're filled with an emptiness

So are the speakers before the bassline kicks

Just feel it move through you

[Chorus]

I used to think I only had two states

Forcibly yellow or a dеfault grey

But I open my eyеs to signs of life

Outside the binary, a fine array of light

Oh, oh-oh, oh

[Verse 2]

Well, I know that ache in your bones

But in the dirt with the insects, we are never alone

Yeah, our days consist of avoiding being stepped on

But all the earth is our home

So hey, it's okay, welcome to the family

A patchwork tuxedo

[Chorus]

I used to think I only had two states

Forcibly yellow or a default grey

But I open my eyes to signs of life

Outside the binary, a fine array of light

[Bridge]

Trapped outside kaleidoscope

Cope without ropes around your sounding throat

My weekends used to consist of loosening nooses

But the truth is, you're stronger than you think

So cut through me, a library of flawed parts

A thin cry starts

But truly, I carry your heart in my heart

A quiet sonnet that posits melancholic suggestion

But from it we saw its symphonic resurrection

Let the children to sleep now, listening to MOBO on loud sound

Emitting from a house that may never be a home

[Chorus]

You used to think you only had two states

Forcibly yellow or a default grey

But you opened your eyes to signs of life

Outside the binary, a fine array of light

We used to think we only had two states

Forcibly yellow or a default grey

But we opened our eyes to signs of life

Outside the binary, a fine array of light
