Automatic

[Verse 1]
The scar on my left palm is shaped like the Passaic River
Got it that Tuesday in July, bike chain slipped on the bridge over
For years it was just damage, a map of a mistake
Just another quiet tremor my own two hands would make

[Chorus]
And your thumb on that line is a whole new religion
Every busted gear in my chest finds a new position
You're the high-beam vision that cuts through the static
It's so automatic, god, it feels automatic

[Verse 2]
I still feel the gravel burn, hear my mother's quiet sigh
"Samo naprijed," she said, with the war stuck in her eye
Her voice was like the engine knock I could never fix alone
A history written in static, a ghost inside my bones

[Chorus]
And your thumb on that line is a whole new religion
Every busted gear in my chest finds a new position
You're the high-beam vision that cuts through the static
It's so automatic, god, it feels automatic

[Bridge]
And I'm not on the Turnpike trying to outrun the rust
I'm right here in your mercy, in a body I can trust
Surrendering

[Outro]
Automatic
Automatic...
