Blue screen glow on my face Coffee rings on the database Half past 2 Chasing ghosts You in the code In the rows Every log feels like a memory Error lines read like poetry I trace your name in the query Hit run Heart racing I’m ready In my last data dream You were more than a string on a screen You stepped out of the stream Broke the loop Rewrote the scene If the server goes dark tonight And I lose every trace of your light I’ll still see you Between the bits and beams In my last data dream Old hard drives on the shelf Hold the parts of my old self Fragments flicker Scenes half-saved You’re the file I never changed You appear in corrupted frames Laughing loud in the static rain I reach out through the archive mist Feel the warmth I almost missed In my last data dream You were more than a string on a screen You stepped out of the stream Broke the loop Rewrote the scene If the server goes dark tonight And I lose every trace of your light I’ll still see you Between the bits and beams In my last data dream
