Verse
White light cuts you into frames
One second here, then gone again
Floor tiles flash beneath your feet
Your face a flicker, on repeat
Shoulder blade, a photograph
Held for a beat then torn in half
I count you in the pulse of light
Losing you and found tonight
Pre-Chorus
Are you real between the strobes
Or just a shape the light bestows
Do you stay when the dark comes back
Can I trust what the flash gives back
Chorus
Skin against the strobe
Catch me in the flicker, let it show
Skin against the strobe
Stay a little longer, don't let go
Skin against the strobe
Every flash a truth I need to know
Skin against the strobe
Freeze me here before the lights go low
Verse
Hand finds hand in a burst of white
Gone before I get it right
Sweat like static on your neck
Strobe keeps stealing what comes next
Half a smile in silver light
Half a shadow, half a bite
I'm building you from broken time
Piece by piece in the flash line
Pre-Chorus
Are you real between the strobes
Or just a shape the light bestows
Do you stay when the dark comes back
Can I trust what the flash gives back
Chorus
Skin against the strobe
Catch me in the flicker, let it show
Skin against the strobe
Stay a little longer, don't let go
Skin against the strobe
Every flash a truth I need to know
Skin against the strobe
Freeze me here before the lights go low
Bridge
Maybe the dark's the honest part
Maybe the flash is where we start
No need to solve what the light can't hold
Just stay inside the strobe
Chorus
Skin against the strobe
Catch me in the flicker, let it show
Skin against the strobe
Stay a little longer, don't let go
Skin against the strobe
Every flash a truth I need to know
Skin against the strobe
Freeze me here before the lights go low
