Until You Crossed the Room

Lyrics

[Intro]
(instrumental — warm, washed-out, slow)

[Verse 1] [Stripped — vocal and warm pad]
I had the cosmos catalogued and cross-referenced, every sorrow pre-explained
I had diagnosed the sunset, I had reasons I'd arranged and rearranged
I could forecast every heartbreak, I'd gone immune, I'd gone serene
A connoisseur of nothing, the loneliest savant you've ever seen

[Chorus] [Building — slow swell, distorted bass blooming warm]
Until you crossed the room
And my certainties went feral
Every theorem held its breath and swooned
I thought I had existence solved
And you unsolved it

[Verse 2] [Stripped]
You moved and all my axioms came tumbling off their shelves like drunks
I replayed it 'til I wore it thin — you got stranger every pass, you sunk
There's a hairline through my confidence in the exact shape of your gait
I had built myself a flawless tomb — and you taught me to vacate

[Chorus] [Huge] [Warm] [Distorted]
Until you crossed the room
And my certainties went feral
Every theorem held its breath and swooned
I thought I had existence solved
And you unsolved it

[Outro]
(you unsolved it... you unsolved it... thank you...)
