I’m dragging feet down every single frozen aisle Forced to wear this heavy and painted plastic smile There are ghosts floating in the eyes of every face I’m moving like a stranger through this hollow space The glass reflects a body that I don't recognize Just a foreign shadow behind these tired eyes I pinch the skin upon my arm until it bleeds Just trying to satisfy these human needs
The frequency is shifting I’m falling out of phase Lost inside the labyrinth of these disconnected days I’m screaming underwater but the surface never breaks Just a ripple in the fabric that the simulation makes
I’m coming un-done at the seams! Waking up exhausted from these paralyzed dreams! The signal is corrupted the connection’s worn and thin! I don’t know where the outside stops and where I begin! Am I just a malfunction in the grand design? Walking on the razor edge of a broken line!
The colors are desaturated bleeding into gray I watch the hours liquefy and slowly drip away My memories feel like movies that I watched a life ago Projected on a screen of smoke flickering and slow I reach out for a handle but my fingers pass right through The terrifying feeling that none of this is true Is there a pilot flying in this hollowed-out machine? Or am I just a phantom in a terrifying scene?
Make... me... real. Make... me... feel. The numbness is a heavy coat. Hands around my throat.
I CAN'T BREATHE!

Disconnect... Offline... Lost.
