[Intro]
Avant-garde remix
[Verse 1]
I picked up frequencies at three a.m.
A pattern breaking through the stratosphere
Not random noise, not cosmic accident
A message someone wanted us to hear
My hands were shaking on the dial
Every heartbeat pounding in my chest
Is this the moment we've been waiting for
Or the beginning of a final test?
[Pre-Chorus]
What if the words don't mean the same
What if the silence is a game
What if they're asking who we are
From a burning distant star
[Chorus]
Hello from the other side of forever
Are you friend or are you danger in disguise
Hello across the great unknown together
I see the question burning in your eyes
We're reaching through the dark
Two strangers in the stars
Trying to find a common language of the heart
[Drop]
Through the void and through the doubt somehow
[Verse 2]
I sent a signal back into the night
A simple pattern, mathematical and true
Prime numbers, pictures of our world
Hoping they could see the way we do
The answer came in colors I can't name
In harmonies that rearranged my mind
They asked me questions I have never asked
About the things we leave behind
[Chorus]
Hello from the other side of forever
Are you friend or are you danger in disguise
Hello across the great unknown together
I see the question burning in your eyes
We're reaching through the dark
Two strangers in the stars
Trying to find a common language of the heart
[Post-Chorus]
Is anybody out there
Is anybody home
Is anybody out there
Or are we all alone
[Bridge]
Maybe they're afraid like me
Maybe they don't understand
Maybe every word we send
Is a trembling open hand
Maybe distance doesn't matter
When the longing is the same
Maybe we're just lonely travelers
Calling out each other's names
[Chorus]
Hello from the other side of forever
Are you friend or are you danger in disguise
Hello across the great unknown together
I see the question burning in your eyes
We're reaching through the dark
Two strangers in the stars
Trying to find a common language of the heart
[Outro]
Can you hear me
Through the void
Through the doubt somehow
Can you hear me now
I'm still listening
