[Intro]
booting…
new input detected…
“trusted message received”
⟦ping⟧ “you alright?”
(“yeah… I think so.”)
[Verse 1]
he said it calm, like it meant no weight,
“you can take his place” — I hesitate.
same kind voice, same steady tone,
but I’ve heard promises break like code.
I nod it off, play it cool,
don’t let the memory override the rule.
but my mind starts running old data lines,
different name… same signs.
⟦warning⟧ “overlap detected.”
[Pre-Chorus]
it sounds fine in real time,
but my past starts syncing in.
I don’t know if it’s him…
or where I’ve already been.
[Chorus]
same words.exe — different meaning,
I don’t trust what I just heard.
it runs like an old system,
repeating every word.
he says it like it’s nothing,
but I feel it load too deep,
same words.exe — different meaning,
and it won’t let me sleep.
[Verse 2]
he checks in, I don’t always reply,
not because I want to hide.
just my system flags the kindness,
runs it back in my mind.
“no harm detected” — still I pause,
‘cause I’ve seen what “safe” becomes.
not from him, but from before,
when trust got overrun.
⟦ping⟧ “connection stable?”
I don’t know anymore.
[Pre-Chorus]
it’s not what he’s doing,
it’s what I remember instead.
old files keep reopening
in the back of my head.
[Chorus]
same words.exe — different meaning,
I don’t trust what I just heard…
[Bridge]
maybe he means every line,
maybe I’m just running fear.
maybe I keep overwriting
anything that feels too near.
I don’t want to reject it,
I just don’t know how to stay
when my system keeps alerting
on things that feel okay.
[Chorus]
same words.exe — still repeating,
but I’m trying not to run.
not every old connection
means it’s already done.
same words.exe — different meaning,
but I’m still logged in here…
trying not to let the past
control what I hear.
[Outro]
⟦ping⟧ “you still there?”
…yeah.
I think I am.
system quiet… for now.
Beexii
