Lyrics
[Intro] (still runs) (still runs) [Verse 1] Grandmother caught my wrist mid-note, six strings, no paper, thumb on mine. Said the time lives in the skin, not in the line. [Pre-Chorus] They send the new one while I'm mid-song; I play what no one wrote down. A little red light blinks by my name, I haven't learned what I found. [Hook] Everything gets a new skin, I'm still the old current. One percent left in the battery, I keep on burning. No book for the hands that taught me, still the current under you. (still runs) [Verse 2] Phones dying in a circle on the floor, wrong cable, everybody loud. I don't need a wall for this; six strings talking when the lights go out. [Pre-Chorus] They thumb for something they can hold; the screen jumps first. I reach you with no bar, the current that was never bought. [Hook] Everything gets a new skin, I'm still the old current. Kill the app if you like, the six strings don't notice. No book for the hands that taught me, still the current, older than they know. (still runs) [Bridge] Maybe nobody keeps my name; maybe the strings go quiet. The girl from last summer has it; she's putting it in somebody's hands. [Final Hook] Everything gets a new skin, I'm still the old current. Pull the plug if you want, I don't even flicker. No book for the hands that taught me, still the current. I passed it on. [Outro] Still the current. Passed it on. (still runs)
