Lyrics
Intro: Warped tape loop with ambient textures
Verse 1
Started with something ordinary
A thought that seemed so clear
But somehow in translation
It curved into something weird
Like sunlight through a prism
Or looking through water's lens
What was straight now has angles
What was simple now transcends
Chorus: Dreamy harmonies build
Bent idea, taking shape in my mind
Bent idea, transforming as it climbs
From neuron to neuron, gaining momentum
Distorting with each new connection
What emerged doesn't match what I started
But I think I prefer the direction
Verse 2: Subtle percussion enters
Tried explaining it to others
My vision seems so plain to me
Their confusion made me realize
It's mutated quietly
The concept kept evolving
As I tried to pin it down
What was linear's now spiraling
What was lost has now been found
Bridge: Hypnotic arpeggiator with Moog swells
Some thoughts refuse to travel straight
They wander down unusual paths
What seems like error or mistake
Might lead to better aftermath
Might lead to better aftermath
The mind creates by breaking rules
By letting structures reconstruct
Sometimes the map must fold and bend
For us to find what's truly us
Chorus: Full arrangement with rich textures
Bent idea, taking shape in my mind
Bent idea, transforming as it climbs
From neuron to neuron, gaining momentum
Distorting with each new connection
What emerged doesn't match what I started
But I think I prefer the direction
Outro: Elements gradually dissolve
Maybe the bending is what makes it mine
The warping what makes it worth sharing
Chorus: Full arrangement with rich textures
Bent
