Seismic Core

[Verse 1]
The concrete breathes a humid sigh,
Floor hums deep, a core alive.
Dust motes dance in fractured light,
Ancestral whispers through the night.
A silent pact, beneath the drone,
Each pulse a rhythm, deeply known.

[Chorus]
Don't let the strata cool, don't let it cease.
We found our home in this collective peace.
Let the pressure build, let the tectonic grind,
Leave the shifting world far behind.

[Verse 2]
Through urban fissures, sound siphons in,
A current deep where new worlds spin.
We trace the fault lines with our feet,
Every echo, bittersweet.
A memory etched in sweat and heat,
The desert's hum, a pulsing beat.

[Chorus]
Don't let the strata cool, don't let it cease.
We found our home in this collective peace.
Let the pressure build, let the tectonic grind,
Leave the shifting world far behind.

[Bridge]
Under a roof of rusted iron dreams,
This ephemeral 'we', this river streams.
A crystalline moment, hard-won, bright,
Holding back the pale encroaching light.

[Chorus]
Don't let the strata cool, don't let it cease.
We found our home in this collective peace.
Let the pressure build, let the tectonic grind,
Leave the shifting world far behind.

[Outro]
The core won't yield, the dust remains.
Forever etched in these deep veins.
