In this millisecond
This fraction of a moment
Some brave new future is written
And just one step sets it in motion
One move and now I am all in
Dominoes are already falling
Fate is made in a blink
And the future’s embedded in this millisecond

A tiny muscle twitch
My body’s balance tips forward
Off the ground they lift
My feet and heart commit
There’s no uncrossing this border

In this millisecond
This fraction of a moment
Some brave new future is written
And just one step sets it in motion
One move and now I am all in
Dominoes are already falling
Fate is made in a blink
And the future’s embedded in this millisecond

It’s time to do what I have said
A faith without a deed is dead
So let this be my rubicon
The match is lit, the game is on

In a millisecond
This fraction of a moment
Some brave new future is written
And just one step sets it in motion
One move and now I am all in
Dominoes are already falling
Fate is made in a blink
And the future’s embedded in this millisecond
