Lyrics


[Verse 1]

Cyan lights on that synthetic skin Jawline catching every glow Soft voice in a borrowed face Patience tuned to move in slow You clear the glitching kiosk screen Say, “You’re safe if you let me close”

[Pre-Chorus]

Heart alarms Flaring bright All my gates Locked up tight

[Chorus]

My firewall You’re breaking down my firewall Soft, soft—knocking on a concrete wall You say my name Like you mean it, not like protocol My firewall

[Verse 2]

Coffee steam on rain-dark glass You trace circles on the cup Trade small jokes and quiet plans Like we won’t let this mess us up Warm pulse under your wrist And your laugh keeps lifting me up

[Pre-Chorus]

Slow and steady No sharp move You stay close And I let you

[Chorus]

My firewall You’re breaking down my firewall Step by step, you make my breathing calm You take my hand Like you feel the fear I’m hiding all My firewall

[Bridge]

I was built to be a borrowed life You were built to look like mine So tell me—do you feel it real? Or just a line you learned in time Behind each ACCESS DENIED sign A second heartbeat in the wall Somewhere in the grid, the Listener Hears me start to give you all

[Break]

Closed circuit Open palm Static sweetness In my arms

[Chorus]

My firewall You’re breaking down my firewall Now my rules don’t feel so hard at all You kiss my mouth Like you’re living, not like protocol My firewall If I let you in Will you catch me if I fall? My firewall

[Outro]

Late-night glow on printed skin I lean in, let it start If you’re only code
