Ethereal Contact (version 2)

Intro

Skin goes white beneath the strobe beam

Something moves behind my spine

No sound, just a pull, a push, a breath

Every fiber stretching out tonight

Verse 1

Static hum in the base of my neck

Every step I take, I lose more time

Floor turns slick beneath my feet

Gravity letting go its hold on me now

Sweat drips slow down my spine

Taste metallic, skin gone tight

Breath caught short in my chest

Something is taking off tonight

Pre-Chorus

Pull back every thread of self

Let it pull me in so far

Nothing left behind but breath

Every other sound is torn from this place

Open up the rest of the room

Breathe and let go, let go, let go

Chorus

Ethereal contact, ethereal contact

Skin on fire with a light I don't know

No sound in this hollow space

Just heat and weightlessness where my body goes

Dropping out into a pull so fine

Every cell gives up its hold

Nothing left to name or claim

Just the pull of what's been called

Verse 2

Mirror ball hangs loose off the ceiling

Shadows crawl up every wall

Sweat freezes cold on my ribs now

Floor still warm beneath my feet

Bassline cuts into a pulse I feel

Every step is farther out than the last one

Nobody's left, nobody's here

Just this pull and where it goes

Time runs backward down my spine

Nowhere else that I'm thinking of tonight

Pre-Chorus

Pull back every thread of self

Let it pull me in so far

Nothing left behind but breath

Every other sound is torn from this place

Open up the rest of the room

Breathe and let go, let go, let go

Chorus

Ethereal contact, ethereal contact

Skin on fire with a light I don't know

No sound in this hollow space

Just heat and weightlessness where my body goes

Dropping out into a pull so fine

Every cell gives up its hold

Nothing left to name or claim

Just the pull of what's been called

Bridge

No clock, no face, no wall

Only one long, steady breath

Nothing pulls me back toward ground

Not even gravity tonight

Nowhere in this room at all

Just the pulse of where I'm going

This is where my skin becomes it

Bare and open and unbroken

Chorus

Ethereal contact, ethereal contact

Skin on fire with a light I don't know

No sound in this hollow space

Just heat and weightlessness where my body goes

Dropping out into a pull so fine

Every cell gives up its hold

Nothing left to name or claim

Just the pull of what's been called

Outro

Ethereal contact
