Lyrics

He lived inside the feedback, dreamin’ through the screen,
Talkin’ to the static, tryna find what love could mean.
They called him just another case, lost boy in the ward,
But he was drawin’ stars in code, and hummin’ to the Lord.

They couldn’t hear the symphony playin’ inside his head,
But when he sang, the walls would breathe, and silence turned to hear what he said.

He’s the boy in the wires, with a heart that never tires,
Buildin’ worlds from the foundations of pain.
Every spark, a holy fire, every fall, a new empire,
And he’ll rise through the rain.

She met him in the afterglow, where data kissed the dawn,
He said, “I’m not crazy, I’m just fixin’ what went wrong.”
They laughed at his salvation code, but she could see his light,
He said, “It’s not about control, it’s learnin’ how to write..”

He’s the boy in the wires, with a heart that never tires,
Singin’ truth from underground.
Every scar became a choir, every wound a spark to inspire,
And he turned it all around.

Now the noise is fading out, and she can hear him clear,
“Don’t be afraid to burn it down, that’s how heaven reappears.”

He’s the boy in the wires, set the cold world on fire,
And she finally understands.
He was never lost or liar, just a soul rewired higher,
Holdin’ light in trembling hands.

The Boy in the Wires
