Lyrics
(You're just a number, you're just a number now)
Rotterdam, am I built to code?
(You're just a number, you're just a number now)
Or is this just a temporary load?
[Verse 1]
The perspex screen at the Wijnhaven desk is cold
My passport photo's looking ten years old
The fluorescent lights hum out a single, anxious note
Got rum cake crumbs inside my winter coat
[Pre-Chorus]
And the man behind the glass doesn't look up
Just shuffles forms, ignores my coffee cup's
Faded ring on the countertop he wipes away
I practice the right, pragmatic thing to say
"It's just a stamp," I tell my shaking hand
A simple gear inside a bigger plan
Tension, release… but it's just tension here
Is my whole blueprint built on shifting fear?
[Chorus]
(You're just a number, you're just a number now)
Rotterdam, am I built to code?
(You're just a number, you're just a number now)
Or is this just a temporary load?
[Verse 2]
Tuesday morning, and they just called ninety-two
My mother texted, "Just be the best of you."
But this plastic chair feels like planned obsolescence
And my Dutch sounds like a weak defense
[Pre-Chorus]
And the man behind the glass doesn't look up
Just shuffles forms, ignores my coffee cup's
Faded ring on the countertop he wipes away
I practice the right, pragmatic thing to say
"It's just a stamp," I tell my shaking hand
A simple gear inside a bigger plan
Tension, release… but it's just tension here
Is my whole blueprint built on shifting fear?
[Chorus]
(You're just a number, you're just a number now)
Rotterdam, am I built to code?
(You're just a number, you're just a number now)
Or is this just a temporary load?
[Bridge]
Struan's probably thirsty on the window sill
Is this the fulcrum? Is time standing still?
[Outro]
(Am I built to code?)
Just a temporary load…
About Leo Pulso
Leo Pulso was supposed to be an industrial designer, but he dropped out of TU Delft to build worlds out of sound instead. Raised in Rotterdam between his Dutch father's pragmatism and his Jamaican mother's rhythm, he channels that duality into his music, sampling the steel pan he’s played since age eight to create massive, emotional dance anthems. These songs are the blueprints of a life still…
