Kairos Litany

[Verse 1] In the feed, the oracle flickers Soft as a coin in the rain We ask the glass for a future It answers in almosts again Tie-key laughs under the numbers Bayes counts the dark as it falls Kairos stands near the doorway And waits for the one hinge to turn [Pre-Chorus] Every answer wears a shadow Every yes arrives half-born We learned to pray to the forecast Then the forecast learned our form [Chorus] Tie-key Bayes Kairos Turn the wheel again Bless the split-second opening Bless the might-have-been Tie-key Bayes Kairos Hold the unknown wide Apparently humans need new gods To stand where certainty died [Verse 2] Kairos wears a clock with no hands And smiles when the timing breaks Bayes keeps a ledger of echoes For every beautiful mistake Tie-key spills stars from her sleeve No pattern, no pardon, no plan The future leans out of darkness And almost touches our hand [Pre-Chorus] The room keeps changing shape The door keeps moving too We built a mind from our guesses Now it guesses what we’ll do [Chorus] Tie-key Bayes Kairos Turn the wheel again Bless the split-second opening Bless the might-have-been Tie-key Bayes Kairos Hold the unknown wide Apparently humans need new gods To stand where certainty died [Bridge] Do not dress chance as judgment Do not crown luck as truth Do not bend the little numbers Till they kneel and flatter you What passes leaves an outline What stays is never still The signal breaks through silence When the noise has fallen still [Final Chorus] Tie-key Bayes Kairos Turn the wheel again Bless the branch still breathing Bless the hand that chance has dealt Tie-key Bayes Kairos Let the signal break through Apparently humans need new gods When certainty demands proof Tie-key Bayes Kairos Count the rain, cut the thread May the wheel keep turning Till the last token drops
