[Intro – soft piano, distant strings]
I used to know this place I’m in,
Now it echoes with the ghosts of skin.
Faces blur like static noise,
I’m screaming, but there’s no voice…
[Verse 1 – harsh screams, slow buildup]
The mirror lies — reflection cracks,
I'm fading out, can't find my tracks.
These walls, they hum with hollow light,
I’m just a ghost of what felt right.
Synthetic dreams replace my skin,
I'm coded deep in discipline.
The heartbeat’s lost in sterile air,
I breathe but nothing’s really there.
[Pre-Chorus – rising tension, half-clean]
Can you feel me disintegrate?
Another day — another fake.
I reach for life, but touch the void,
A soul misplaced, a self destroyed.
[Chorus – clean, powerful, emotional]
I’m drifting further every day,
A stranger in my own decay.
Can you still hear me through the haze?
Before I vanish in the grey.
[Verse 2 – heavier, faster]
Metal nerves and plastic veins,
Pulse in patterns built from pain.
No touch is real, no thought is mine,
Just echoes through a dying mind.
I tried to scream the silence out,
But no one knows what this is about.
A smile rehearsed, a heart restrained,
I’m sane — but never quite the same.
[Bridge – orchestral break, choir + screams]
(screamed)
Erase my name — erase the sound!
This hollow shell can’t turn around!
---
Yet somewhere deep beneath the frost,
There’s still a spark I thought I’d lost…
[Final Chorus – clean + screamed layers]
I’m drifting further every day,
A stranger in my own decay.
Still searching through the disarray,
To find the piece that slipped away.
[Outro – soft piano returns, whisper vocals]
If I disappear, don’t call my name…
I was already gone before you came.
