Electric Whispers
Rhyan Gomez
3 AM, the room is cold and still
The only warmth is coming from the windowsill
Of a digital screen, a window to your world
Where every secret and every dream is unfurled
I'm typing lines I'd never dare to say
Waiting for the bubbles to show me the way
The signal travels through the dark of the night
A thousand miles in a flicker of light
I can almost feel the touch of your hand
Across the ocean, across the sand
Blue light glowing on your face
Messages lost in outer space
Electric whispers through the wire
Setting my silent world on fire
We're just two pulses in a hollow frame
Burning bright with a digital flame
The static hum is a lullaby
Underneath a silicon sky
A heart emoji, a colon and a smile
Makes me forget the distance for a while
The world is sleeping but we're wide awake
In this electric bond we'll never break
The signal travels through the dark of the night
A thousand miles in a flicker of light
I can almost feel the touch of your hand
Across the ocean, across the sand
Blue light glowing on your face
Messages lost in outer space
Electric whispers through the wire
Setting my silent world on fire
We're just two pulses in a hollow frame
Burning bright with a digital flame
(Whisper, whisper)
Can you hear the current?
Can you feel the spark?
The data is dancing
Inside the dark
Blue light glowing on your face
Messages lost in outer space
Electric whispers through the wire
Setting my silent world on fire
We're just two pulses in a hollow frame
Burning bright with a digital flame
Electric whispers
Through the wire
(Just one more message)
(Goodnight)
(Sound of a phone locking)
