called it the same

English lyrics

[Intro - whispered rhythm, L/R] (L) Before time (R) Before time (C) Before the name DOM DOM TIK TOK DOM DOM TIK TOK [Hook 1 - low chant, tight pulse] Before time Out of orbit Impossible is possible Before time Out of orbit I can see it I can’t call it DOM DOM TIK TOK DOM DOM TIK TOK [Verse 1 - rhythmic whisper] What is time before time? What was there before the line? Am I early? Am I late? Am I standing outside the gate? Maybe time had another name Maybe nobody called it the same Maybe someone asked: “What time is it?” And someone said: “Amin... two-thirty.” [Hook 2 - wider whispers] Before time Out of orbit Impossible is possible No up No down No happy No sad Just farther Just outside Just a mind past the map [Pulse Break] DOM DOM TIK TOK DOM DOM TIK TOK (L) Red (R) Blue (L) Red (R) Blue [Verse 2 - tighter, more musical] What color is red? You say red I say red Same word same light same room same night But if your red is my blue how would I know and how would you? Same name different view Same clock different truth [Hook 3 - stacked whisper chant] Before time Before red Before “me” Inside my head Out of orbit Still awake Impossible changes shape DOM DOM TIK TOK DOM DOM TIK TOK [Rapid-Fire Cognitive Breach] Name it, frame it, tame it, claim it See it, say it, save it, change it Clock to time, word to mind Line to line to line to line Red is red because we agree Time is time because we say Maybe language drew the border Maybe I just walked away Not broken Not healed Not lost Not found Not higher Not lower Just outside the common ground [Drop - TOK disappears] DOM DOM TIK... DOM TIK... Where is TOK? [Bridge - hypnotic call/response] (L) Am I before time? (R) Or after the name? (L) Am I out of orbit? (R) Or out of the frame? (C) This is not madness (L/R) beyond madness (C) I am out of orbit (L/R) still conscious (C) I see the orbit (L) from the outside (R) from the outside [Final Hook - biggest, but still restrained] Before time Out of orbit Impossible is possible Before time Out of orbit Maybe the map stopped early Before time Out of orbit Not happy Not sad Just farther Just lucid Just back from the dark [Outro - rhythmic fade] When someone comes back from darkness They come back like this DOM TIK (L) What time is it? (R) Before. (C) Amin. DOM.
