She Doesn’t Run in Space

INTRO

The oxygen light is blinking wrong
The ship keeps breathing but nobody is
I hear their boots in the ductwork
They think they’re hunting
They’re not

⸻

VERSE 1

They taught me how to look harmless
How to keep my hands clean and slow
But gravity doesn’t work the same
When rage learns how to float

Every hallway has a memory
Every door has teeth
They locked me inside a miracle
And called it relief

⸻

PRE-CHORUS

They sealed my voice in a chamber
And named it safety
But pressure changes everything
Especially me

⸻

CHORUS

I don’t wake up screaming
I wake up surgical
Every breath rewrites the room
Every move is critical
You think you see a girl in glass
But I’m not fragile at all
She doesn’t run in space
She dismantles the wall

⸻

VERSE 2

They flirt with the idea of danger
Like it’s something they can switch off
I memorized the hum of the engines
So I know when their courage drops

My shadow moves before I do
My pulse knows every vent
I don’t leave fingerprints
I leave a change in the temperature

⸻

PRE-CHORUS 2

They’re praying to escape pods
Like saints in cheap disguise
But faith doesn’t open airlocks
Fear does

⸻

CHORUS

I don’t wake up screaming
I wake up tactical
Every heartbeat cuts the grid
Nothing here is accidental
You think I’m chasing their attention
I’m chasing the fall
She doesn’t run in space
She dismantles the wall

⸻

BRIDGE

They call my name in empty corridors
Like it still belongs to me
But I traded it for velocity
And something they’ll never be

⸻

BREAKDOWN

No alarms
No mercy
Just metal learning to bleed

⸻

FINAL CHORUS

I don’t wake up screaming
I wake up elemental
I make silence out of motion
I make loss instructional
They wanted a body to admire
I became protocol
She doesn’t run in space
She dismantles the wall

I don’t wake up screaming
I wake up unstoppable
Every system bends around me
Every rule is optional
They came for the fantasy
I became the withdrawal
She doesn’t run in space
She dismantles the wall

⸻

OUTRO

Zero gravity
Maximum consequence
