Polar Currents (versión 2)

Verse 1 – female vocal, heavy reverb

Bare ice stretches out like the skin of a drum

Your footsteps echo on the frozen water hum

Steel and frost together hold the same tone

Pulling us into the current that we call home

The city above is burning, black smoke across the sea

But down here in the dark where the ripples start to be

We're not running from anything, we're running free

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it moving under your skin?

Is this our own heartbeat or just the current within?

Chorus

Polar currents carrying us out to sea

Where the shadows dance like a thousand warriors in me

No more steel in the water, only your hand on my chest

Pulling me down into the darkness where we belong at last

Verse 2 – female vocal, heavy reverb

Ice caves glowing green like an old man's eye

We're the last ones swimming through the dying light

Your voice cuts through the static of every machine

A siren in the dark calling out a name I've never seen

I let go of everything that I used to know

Letting the current pull me under and slow down my clock

Every wall that we built, it just washes clean away

Leaving only this one thing: where your hand touches mine today

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it moving under your skin?

Is this our own heartbeat or just the current within?

Chorus

Polar currents carrying us out to sea

Where the shadows dance like a thousand warriors in me

No more steel in the water, only your hand on my chest

Pulling me down into the darkness where we belong at last

Bridge – androgynous processed choir stack, pitched-down

Currents, currents

Taking over our hearts now

Nothing to hold onto

Just this one sound and you

Chorus

Polar currents carrying us out to sea

Where the shadows dance like a thousand warriors in me

No more steel in the water, only your hand on my chest

Pulling me down into the darkness where we belong at last
