Neon Wire Hum 2 (Version 2)

Verse

Neon wire hum on the factory floor

Sparks in the air like we've been waiting for

Twin spotlights, one on your face

I keep my distance but I don't turn away

Every step you take is a whole new frame

You work the machine till the clock runs out

Your hands still moving when the lights go dark

I stay late to catch what nobody wrote down

Your shadow on the wall like it's leaving its mark

Pre-Chorus

Tell me, how does your body tell the time?

When is the hour that you stop running in your mind?

Chorus

Hold still for a minute, hold still for one more breath

Let the neon wire hum turn into something we can feel

Your shadow on the wall and I'm right there with it too

We're not late yet.

Verse 2

The foreman's whistle cuts through the heat haze

You don't jump like you used to, you just pause for a moment's space

I see the wire humming where your skin meets mine

It's not the clock that's counting down but the way our bodies align

We work the same machine for years and years

But tonight it's like we're working on something more than gears

Every spark is a signal, every spark is true

And I'm holding my breath till I catch one that's just for you

Pre-Chorus

Tell me, how does your body tell the time?

When is the hour that you stop running in your mind?

Chorus

Hold still for a minute, hold still for one more breath

Let the neon wire hum turn into something we can feel

Your shadow on the wall and I'm right there with it too

We're not late yet.

Bridge

Maybe time is just a spark that we keep alive

Not the hands of a clock or the beat of our stride

Just this one moment suspended in the neon light

Where every second feels like an eternity of right

Chorus

Hold still for a minute, hold still for one more breath

Let the neon wire hum turn into something we can feel

Your shadow on the wall and I'm right there with it too

We're not late yet.

Outro

Hold still...

One more breath...

We're not late yet.
