Track Notes
A lonely, mid-tempo ballad about being invisible in a crowded system. The chorus lands like a quiet confession.
Lyrics
[Intro]
"You called my name..."
"But I was null"
[Verse 1]
I watched the room from far away
My commits lost in yesterday
No green checks, just silent screens
A shadow split between machines
[Pre-Chorus 1]
No anchor set, no binding tie
Just ghosted threads that passed me by
A token left, but out of scope
Still holding on to borrowed hope
[Chorus]
You called my name but I was null
A dangling thread with no control
You ran your code, I took the fall
Uncaught, undone, unseen by all
[Verse 2]
Break the loop, reset the frame
Still I return, still not the same
A broken link in all your plans
No stack to trace, no helping hands
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I float through tasks you never see
Invisible dependency
Declared and dropped without a sign
But I remember every line
[Chorus]
You called my name but I was null
A dangling thread with no control
You ran your code, I took the fall
Uncaught, undone, unseen by all
[Bridge]
"Was I ever really there?"
"Or just a field you failed to share?"
A phantom class with no resolve
Not even worth the time to solve
[Final Chorus]
You called my name but I was null
A reference lost, forgettable
You moved ahead, you rewrote me
But I persist in memory
[Outro]
Null and silent (silent)
Still compiling (compiling)
A line you left
But never read
