Verse
Hands shaking where the socket used to be
No cord left hanging off my sleeve
Fingertips buzzing where the hum used to live
Static crawling under skin like it's alive
Pre-Chorus
Something inside me is trying to break free
Pulse rising, nowhere for it to go
Cold sweat trickling down my spine in time
Let it take control before I know
Chorus
Subcutaneous pulse, burning through the bone
Cutting loose what's been locked inside this cage
No wires, no walls, just a heartbeat alone
Subcutaneous pulse, taking over the stage
Verse 2
Sweat dripping on my collarbone like rain
My skin remembers the shock that it sustained
Every spark I've ever felt has built to this place
Something's breaking through into its own space
Pre-Chorus
Something inside me is trying to break free
Pulse rising, nowhere for it to go
Cold sweat trickling down my spine in time
Let it take control before I know
Chorus
Subcutaneous pulse, burning through the bone
Cutting loose what's been locked inside this cage
No wires, no walls, just a heartbeat alone
Subcutaneous pulse, taking over the stage
Bridge
Not a shock, not a spark
Just a current that's left its mark
It's not gone, it's not done
This is only the beginning before I'm won
Pulling loose from what it used to hold
Pulse rising through my cold, grey skin like gold
Chorus
Subcutaneous pulse, burning through the bone
Cutting loose what's been locked inside this cage
No wires, no walls, just a heartbeat alone
Subcutaneous pulse, taking over the stage
