Theo Nightshade - Quantum Silence Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Late night in the city's glow
Screens flicker, but my mind's running low
Grandmother's stories echo in my head
'bout times before we all got misled
Through copper wires and fiber lines
Chasing ghosts between the signs

[Chorus]
Disconnected, but I'm still here
Jazz flows through my atmosphere
These machines can't steal my soul
When the music makes me whole
Digital dreams fade away
While my saxophone still knows how to play

[Verse 2]
Memory fragments scattered wide
Like broken code that's been denied
Workshop nights and neon lights
Trying to make this feeling right
But every circuit board and wire
Can't replace this burning fire

[Bridge]
In the silence between the noise
Found myself, made my choice
F*ck these screens that bind us tight
Give me brass and blues tonight
Let me breathe, let me flow
Through the spaces only jazz cats know

[Verse 3]
Grandmother smiled and used to say
"Boy, don't let them take your way"
Now I understand what she meant
As these digital walls get bent
Every note that I create
Breaks these chains before it's too late

[Chorus]
Disconnected, but I'm still here
Jazz flows through my atmosphere
These machines can't steal my soul
When the music makes me whole
Digital dreams fade away
While my saxophone still knows how to play

[Outro]
In this space between the real
And the world that others feel
I'll keep playing till the dawn
Till these shadows are all gone
'Cause when everything goes black
The blues will always bring me back
