Am C G F
My thumbs are racing, your screen is still black
Am C G F
I'm throwing heartbeats and getting none back
Am C G F
I'm tied in circles and tangles and knots
Am C G E
Counting the never ending dots...
Fmaj7 Fmaj7 Am
By the time that you are reading the things that I said

The "me" that you are looking for had drifted away
Cmaj7 Am
I can't survive on empty promises
Rhythmic Contrast (3/4 to 4/4): The verse uses a 3/4 time signature at 116 BPM to create a restless, circular "waltz" feel. This rhythmic choice mirrors the lyrical anxiety of being "tied in circles and knots" while waiting for a response.
The Shift to 4/4: Moving the chorus into 4/4 time provides the necessary melodic space for longer phrases. While the 3/4 verse feels like a racing heartbeat, the 4/4 chorus feels like a heavy, "drifting" realization.
Harmonic Resolution: The verse builds tension on an E chord (the dominant), which resolves into the atmospheric Fmaj7 of the chorus. This transition from minor-key urgency to major-seventh "dreaminess" perfectly illustrates the emotional distance between the narrator and the "empty promises" they receive.
Cyclical Structure: The return to 3/4 at measure 27 suggests that the cycle of digital isolation is a loop from which the narrator cannot yet escape.
