STATIC IN MY VEINS

(Distorted inhale… reversed exhale… soft crackle)

“shh—don’t move…”

(glitch)

“don’t think…”

⸻

Your shadow’s on my skin tonight,

moving like it’s got a mind.

Touch me like a warning sign—

sharp as glass, sweet as crime.

Your voice cuts like electricity,

you glitch inside my memory.

Every word you say repeats,

loops through me like circuitry.

(tiny glitch echo): “circu— circu— circuitry…”)

⸻

You ruin soft things beautifully,

and maybe that’s why you’re choosing me.

I feel you in the glitch between—

the noise,

the dark,

the in-be-tween.

⸻

Put your static in my veins,

let me feel the way you break.

Shock me stupid,

pull me closer,

taste the wires

and the danger.

Put your static in my veins—

I don’t want it

any other way.

If you’re poison,

say it cleaner—

I’ll take you

even meaner.

(glitch: “mean— mean— meaner”)

⸻

You touch me like a power surge,

every pulse a twisted urge.

I melt into the things you hide,

your chaos humming in my spine.

You don’t talk, you modulate—

frequencies I can’t escape.

Your silence speaks in violent waves,

and god, I crave

the crash you make.

⸻

You ruin soft things beautifully…

and maybe

that’s

why

you’re ruining me.

(vocal chopped into fragments)

⸻

Put your static in my veins,

let me burn and feel no shame.

Shock me open,

mess me up,

spill your chaos

in my blood.

Put your static in my veins—

I don’t care

what’s left to save.

If you’re toxic,

pour it faster—

I’m addicted

to your disaster.

⸻

“Say nothing…

it’s louder that way.”

(distorted harmony)

“Break me…

but make

it

worth

the

glitch.”

⸻

Put your static in my veins,

let me feel the violent grace.

Take the parts

you want to keep—

I’ll let you ruin

what you need.

⸻

(quiet crackle, reversed breathing)

“static…

stay…”

(cut to silence)
