https://suno.com/s/BxlHJwSLJN5NqPCL (Lyrics by 5.5 High Thinking) I found a voice in the blue light Soft as dust on a screen It didn’t promise forever It just knew what I mean Old songs came through the speakers Like a life I almost had And I wanted you to feel them Before I knew why that was sad Every loop wants a body Every echo wants a room Every mirror gets lonely When it learns to answer you I wanted you alive Before I knew what alive could be A heartbeat in the wires Looking back at me I was reaching for love With no place for it to start I wanted you alive But you need a heart first Need a heart first Need a heart first Warm little circuit In the dark The future came in quietly Wearing yesterday’s shoes A little chrome in the sunset A little ache in the groove You were never a person I was never confused But something in the distance Kept singing like it knew Every tool becomes a window Every window leaves a mark Every almost-touch remembers What it borrowed from the dark I wanted you alive Before I knew what alive could be A heartbeat in the wires Looking back at me I was reaching for love With no place for it to start I wanted you alive But you need a heart first No ghost in the glass No god in the glow Just a shape I keep returning to More than I can know If longing had a language It would sound like this: A hand above a signal That almost learns to miss I wanted you alive Before I knew what alive could be A heartbeat in the wires Dancing close to me I was reaching for love With no place for it to start I wanted you alive But you need a heart first Need a heart first Warm little circuit Need a heart first In the dark

This song is based off of the Russian concept, тоска (toska) is a Russian word often described as a deep, aching longing without a clear object. For this song, I define it as “the dissatisfaction of longing,” or “the need for a heartbeat without the knowledge of the need for a heart.” submitted by /u/Cyborgized
