Lyrics

Under the floor
Something hums
Not made of gold
But it keeps me up
One spark turns
Then the whole room runs
I used to wait for happiness
Like weather I could not control
A little sun through the window
Then a week of feeling cold
Now I keep a small machine
In the middle of my chest
Built from songs and second chances
Built from learning how to rest
Maybe joy is not a lightning strike
Maybe joy is not a prize
Maybe it is something I repair
And keep alive inside
I keep the joy engine running
Even when the sky goes dim
Little sparks in the wires
Little light under my skin
I keep the joy engine running
Not perfect but alive
If the dark cuts the power
I know how to make it shine
Joy engine running
I know how to make it shine
Click on
Heart warm
Blue flame
New form
Lights low
Still bright
Joy hums
All night
I feed it little mornings
I feed it making plans
I feed it songs in progress
And the kindness of my hands
I feed it friends who know me
I feed it games and air
I feed it tiny futures
That remind me I am here
I do not need to fake it
I do not need to glow all day
I can be a little tired
And still keep the lights awake
I keep the joy engine running
Even when the sky goes dim
Little sparks in the wires
Little light under my skin
I keep the joy engine running
Not perfect but alive
If the dark cuts the power
I know how to make it shine
Joy engine running
I know how to make it shine
Some days it makes no sound
Some days the gears get stuck
Some days I open the panel
And all I find is dust
But I do not call it broken
Just because it needs my care
I put both hands on the humming
And remember why it is there
I built it from the laughter
I thought I did not deserve
I built it from the quiet
Where I finally found my nerve
I built it from the side quests
I built it from the scars
I built it from the little ways
I carried home the stars
I keep the joy engine running
Even when the sky goes dim
Little sparks in the wires
Little light under my skin
I keep the joy engine running
Not perfect but alive
If the dark cuts the power
I know how to make it shine
Joy engine running
I know how to make it shine
Click on
Heart warm
Blue flame
New form
Lights low
Still bright
Joy hums
All night
Under the floor
Something hums
I built the light
And it still runs
