Cathode grid, let it go

Verse 1

Zinc plate underfoot

Basement wet with smoke and soot

Oscillator running hot

Forgetting everything I brought

Green beam cuts across the dark

Every pulse a static spark

Pre-Chorus

Signal up

Current wide

Nothing left to keep inside

Breaker blown

Pressure gone

Let the overload come on

Chorus

Cathode grid, let it go

Voltage high, ego low

Cathode grid, take the mind

Leave the heavy frame behind

Cathode grid, wash it clean

Drifting in the laser green

Verse 2

Sub-bass rattling the jaw

Stripping down to what is raw

Strobe flash freezing every face

No more time and no more place

Silver sweat along the skin

Only light is getting in

Pre-Chorus

Signal up

Current wide

Nothing left to keep inside

Breaker blown

Pressure gone

Let the overload come on

Chorus

Cathode grid, let it go

Voltage high, ego low

Cathode grid, take the mind

Leave the heavy frame behind

Cathode grid, wash it clean

Drifting in the laser green

Bridge

No past inside the wire

No fear, no cold desire

Erase the clock, unlock the gate

Dissolving in the circuit state

One pulse, one sound

Feet lifted off the ground

Chorus

Cathode grid, let it go

Voltage high, ego low

Cathode grid, take the mind

Leave the heavy frame behind

Cathode grid, wash it clean

Drifting in the laser green
