Signal in the Skin

[Intro] Whispers in static, a map in my hands Digits pull tight like dancers on strands I trace every line till the night understands A heartbeat hidden in vowels and scans [Verse 1] I find a clue in a cipher of light A shadowed beacon flickers into sight I speak in fragments, decoding my name Each turn of the code reveals who I am in flame [Pre-Chorus] The signal hums softly, a thread through my chest If I can translate this maze, will I know where I’ve messed? [Chorus] I’m decoding the signal that lives in my skin Finding who I’m missing, who I’ve always been If you’re on the other side, send back your reply We’re two halves of a question under the same sky [Verse 2] Letters align like constellations of fate I stitch the gaps, I synchronize the gates The message whispers: you are more than your name A map becomes a mirror, revealing my own frame [Pre-Chorus] A quiet resonance grows where doubts used to cling The cipher unlocks not just secrets, but wings [Chorus] I’m decoding the signal that lives in my skin Finding who I’m missing, who I’ve always been If you’re on the other side, send back your reply We’re two halves of a question under the same sky [Bridge] Between the lines I hear a deeper voice Telling me to listen, to choose, to rejoice Connection is a code we learn to exchange Identity expands as we rearrange [Chorus] I’m decoding the signal that lives in my skin Finding who I’m missing, who I’ve always been If you’re on the other side, send back your reply We’re two halves of a question under the same sky [Outro] The cipher ends where I begin to see A chorus of reflections guiding me I close the loop, and in the echo I find A linked, luminous self, and you align with mine
