Breathe the Static

[Intro – whispered, close mic, panned slightly left]
Let the static hum.
Let the silence cut.
Let the city sleep.
Let the heartbeat strut.

[Verse 1 – spoken low, steady rhythm, slight reverb]
Let the sinner slip.
Let the preacher bluff.
Let the data drip.
Let the signal rough.

Break the pattern.
Kill the feed.
Breathe the static.
Plant the seed.

[Verse 2 – layered vocals, slight delay on last word of each line]
Let the mirror twitch.
Let the wires sweat.
Let the memory glitch.
Let the voice forget.

Drop the fiction.
Burn the name.
Call it chaos.
Call it flame.

[Hook – slightly louder, double-tracked, minimal harmony]
Let the drummer kick.
Let the needle slip.
Let the mind go blank.
Let the ego trip.

[Break – ambient swell, just Rhodes and vinyl crackle under voice]
Cut the cable.
Flip the frame.
What’s a life?
Just a glitch in the game.

[Verse 3 – returns to dry, close voice; almost whispered again]
Let the silence talk.
Let the warning fade.
Let the system walk.
Let the future wait.

Breathe the static.
Crack the shell.
Build a heaven
From this hell.

[Outro – repeat last 4 lines, fading echo, lo-fi filter]
Breathe the static.
Crack the shell.
Build a heaven
From this hell.
