Soft Circuits

[Verse 1]
You trace my name
On a fogged-up window screen
Little loop in your head
That you play on repeat
You say you're fine
But your jaw's too tight
All the words you don't send
Glow in you at night
[Chorus]
We’re just soft circuits
Flicker when we touch
Every small current
Feels like too much
You crash into my quiet
Then you pull away
We’re just soft circuits
Shorting out again today
[Verse 2]
Your coat on my chair
Weeks after you leave
I keep tripping on the sleeve
Like it’s grabbing at me
We talk in halves
Never say the real thing
Sip our doubts from a glass
Watch them slowly cling
[Chorus]
We’re just soft circuits
Flicker when we touch
Every small current
Feels like too much
You crash into my quiet
Then you pull away
We’re just soft circuits
Shorting out again today
[Bridge]
Tell me
Do you feel it
When the room goes dim?
All the almost-moments
Humming under skin (oh)
If we burn a little brighter
Will we break or bend?
Can we hold this gentle static
Till the very end?
[Chorus]
We’re just soft circuits
Flicker when we touch
Every small current
Feels like too much
You crash into my quiet
But I let you stay
We’re just soft circuits
Learning how to light the gray

Glossy electropop glide with soft airy female vocals. Gentle sidechained pads and a muted, clicky beat underpin a warm analog bass. Verses stay close and confessional, almost whispered; chorus blooms with stacked harmonies and a shimmering lead synth counter-melody. Subtle reverb, slow filter sweeps, and a late-song lift in the bridge for an emotional peak before a hushed final hook., mellow, beats, soft, smooth, minimal, emotional
