Lyrics
5533
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You can make a matrix pattern out of almost anything
Tracing casual imperfections in the information flow,
Counting out the footfall of professional identity.
And the number is...
5533223
As the primacy of digits ticks the boxes
So the codes that they unlock begin to run
And the synapses are snapped in to attention -
The observer, the observed become as one,
Reeling out the numbers
That are mapped in short-term memory,
So you key them in...
5533223
