Lyrics • Collapse The Frame

Intro

Verse 1

I’m feeling the static, I’m feeling the hum

I’m tracing the ghost of where the power is from

It’s not in the iron, it’s not in the lead

It’s in the invisible tension instead!

Faraday’s lines, they’re crossing the room

A silk-woven spider-web, silent as doom

You can’t see the wire, you can’t see the thread

But the force of the universe lives in your head!

Pre-Chorus

The space between us isn't empty anymore...

Can you feel the pull?

A million ghosts are knocking on the door...

Current's getting full!

Chorus

I’m caught in the field lines, I’m burning in the arc!

We’re pulling the lightning right out of the dark!

It’s a world made of waves, it’s a world made of light!

Shaking the shadows right out of the night!

IN THE WIRE! IN THE VEIN!

Nothing will ever be solid again!

Verse 2

Maxwell is coding the ghost in the machine

Mapping the vectors of the world in between!

Four little lines and the secrets are out

A mathematical fire to burn away doubt!

It’s a constant, a speed, a limit, a law

The greatest vibration that anyone saw

We’re surfing the ripple, we’re riding the beam

The death of the object, the start of the dream!

Bridge

It’s all... just... frequency...

Crank the voltage.

It’s all... just... energy...

Break the circuit.

WE ARE THE PULSE!

WE ARE THE SPARK IN THE VOID!

Chorus

I’M CAUGHT IN THE FIELD LINES, I’M BURNING IN THE ARC!

WE’RE PULLING THE LIGHTNING RIGHT OUT OF THE DARK!

IT’S A WORLD MADE OF WAVES, IT’S A WORLD MADE OF LIGHT!

SHAKING THE SHADOWS RIGHT OUT OF THE NIGHT!

Outro

In the wire! In the vein!

Nothing is solid...

In the wire! In the vein!

It’s all just waves...
