Incandescent

[iVeg]

You brighten up the room
Hair like you’re electroshocked
Beefy surfer on your arm
Swagger when you walk

Angel with a jasmine scent
Wicked smile says slightly bent
When I listen to you talk
I wonder if there’s room for rent

Incandescent
Burning wire filament
In the vacuum of your mind
Incandescent
Glowing in the darkness
Heat, but little light
[Incandescent]

You sparkle when you dance
Kicking five inch leather shoes
Green eyed monsters at the bar
Wish they could be you

Gnash their teeth in discontent
Plot to trap the one percent
When they pry to get a clue
They always wonder what you meant

CH

Is it all an act?
Is your dumb as false as your implants?
Something you put on to hide your drive and your ambition?

[MicahSommer]

INCANDESCENT
Micah Sommersmith

The sonogram technician leads us to a darkened room
Your mother sits herself upon the throne
And specialized machinery shines sound waves through her womb
To dive into the deep and dark unknown

We’ve heard your muffled heartbeat, she might have felt you move
But you’ve been buried deep inside so long
We’ve got compelling evidence, but still we need the proof
What if we were crazy, we were wrong?

So we train our eyes upon that grainy view
We wait for you to make your big debut

And there’s your spine
And I am yours, my child, and you are mine
And there’s your brain
And in this world of suffering and pain
And there’s your arm
I will shelter you from any harm
And there’s your hand
I promise for as long as I can

And there’s your heart
And here’s my heart
And there’s your heart
And here’s my heart

And on that screen, from that cold robotic crescent
There shines a light no shade could ever lessen
And it’s always present
And it’s luminescent
And it’s incandescent
And it’s incandescent

Incandescent - Paco del Stinko

You turn me on just like a lightbulb when you flick my switch
Flying high just like a seagull when you scratch my itch
Oo-oo-oo I'm glowing white hot
Baby baby gimme all that you got

You put the gas right in my motor when you turn my key
Come take a ride on my showboat down the Mississippi
Oo-oo-oo I'm glowing white hot
Baby baby come and stir my pot

Oh yeah I'm incandescent
Oh yeah come and open my present now

Oh yeah let me light up the room (light up the room)
Oh yeah come and give me the zoom
Fly me higher 'til we hear the sonic boom yeah!

You make my submarine surface when you drop your depth charge
I'm burning up like a furnace when you play in my yard
Oo-oo-oo I'm glowing white hot
Baby baby don't you ever stop

Oh yeah I'm incandescent
Oh yeah come and open my present
Oh yeah I'm incandescent
Oh yeah come and open my present right now
Right now
Right now
I said right now

I feel like I'm in the dark
I guess I'm not that bright
I've no problem with the day
But my favorite time is night
If only I could see you
If only you could know
What the sight of you it does me
...your incandescent glow

These new LEDs,
with their dimability
They don't eat many joules
that's a good thing I can see
But From the time I've spent with them
The better that I know
Nothing quite competes with your Incandescent glow

Please let me screw you in
Let me turn you on, and so
You excite my filament
Ignite the fuel within your
Incandescent glow

5K... that's about the light of day
3K is warmer, but some folks would say
It's 2700 or there about or so
That zeros in on how I feel...touched by your
Incandescent glow

Please let me screw you in
Let me turn you on, and so
You excite my filament
Ignite the fuel within your
Incandescent glow

"Incandescent" by Holly Furlone

All these years spent wanderin', Driftwood,
Take me when you go
(I'll be) by your side, oh but not too close, if I get lost,
May the West Wind drift me home

Where are you goin' today?
Is it someplace you've never been
And what would it take if it meant you would stay by me
Only, oh, for a little while
Like a frozen fire in the night
I could wait for you, for a little while
And you let me go
Not before you shine your
incandescent light

Where am I goin' today?
Is it somewhere I've never seen
And what would you give if it meant I could stay by you
Only, oh, for a little while
Like a frozen fire in the night
I would wait for you, oh, for a little while
And you let me go
Not before you shine your
incandescent light
Incandescent light
Incandescent light
(Assorted oos and ahhs)

[cookie]

We've known for ages
It shows in the wrinkles
Forming on our faces
I don't know where you have
Been all this time
I'm feeling lost
I don't understand

And I see the light
Glowing in the dark
And I lift my hand
Hold on to every spark

We're coming closer
You don't need to
Hide away
No more
Hold my hand
It's just me
No need to pretend
It's all I'll ever be

And I see the light
Glowing in the dark
And I lift my hand
Hold on to every spark

As we walk
Side by side
Do you feel the fire inside
Did it burn
Your heart out
This is not what life's about
Why can't we just sit in the sun?

V1
Forget about forever
It won’t be useful all that long
Just give it a little while
You’ll probably get bored anyway
We live in the moment
So we don’t miss a thing
But we don’t see the forest
And we get lost in the trees

PC
You know there’s a lifespan
Why keep it to yourself
If there’s a plan
Why keep it to yourself

C
Shine a light on the lies
The secrets you hide in design
The planned obsolescence
so incandescent

V2
Where will it go
The waste you created
You let go
Before you were ready
You moved on
While still moving forward
It’s a hole in your heart
You keep trying to fill

PC
You know there’s a lifespan
Why keep it to yourself
If there’s a plan
Why keep it to yourself

C
Shine a light on the lies
The secrets you hide in design
The planned obsolescence
so incandescent

C
Shine a light on the lies
The secrets you hide in design
The planned obsolescence
so incandescent

C
Shine a light on the lies
The secrets you hide in design
The planned obsolescence
so incandescent

Macaque Attack - "Incandescent"

Verse 1
Cold, cold night,
Clear, clear sky,
Staring at Orion,
Breath misting,
Satellite,
Drifts low by,
Glistens like a diamond,
Listening

Chorus
Ooooooooh,
Incandescent blue,
Rigel oh so bright,
I wish that I could rise,
Nine hundred light years through,
Incandescent blue,
A symphony of light,
Beyond the vast divide,

Verse 2
Alnilam,
Far behind,
Betelgeuse so distant,
Flaming,
Mintaka,
Altinak,
Hunter of the skies,
Reigning


Chorus
Ooooooooh,
Incandescent blue,
Rigel oh so bright,
I wish that I could rise,
Nine hundred light years through,
Incandescent blue,
A symphony of light,
Beyond the vast divide,

End Section 1
My lifetime it dictates,
The fact that I can never get there,
A dream I must forsake,
To soar and journey through the heavens,
But if consciousness survives,
I will ascend free and untethered,
To a universe so great,
A place I can explore forever

End Section 2
So far away x 4
