no signal…” (repeats, fading in/out)
Empty space breathing around me
Something’s here but it don’t speak back
I reach out and it folds away
Like it never learned my name
I wake up in a half-lit room
No clocks, no shape, no sense of soon
Thoughts drift like they’re not my own
Like I’m here but fully gone
I hear my name but it’s distorted
Like it’s pulled through broken water
Every feeling gets translated
Into noise I can’t remember
Walls breathe slow, they lean in closer
Like they know I don’t feel sober
Even silence feels like motion
Pulling me into the ocean
I don’t respond, I just dissolve
Every problem I evolve
Into something I can’t solve
So I let it take it all
I try to hold on, but it slips
Through my mind and through my grip
Now I’m floating, piece by piece
Losing weight inside of me
No signal, I’m lost inside
Echoes where I used to hide
Shadows crawl but I can’t decide
Which side of me I keep alive
No signal, the world fades thin
Static hum beneath my skin
If I break I don’t begin
I just sink where it’s always been
(instrumental break—glassy synth chords, chopped vocal fragments:
“no… no signal… I fade… I fade…”)
I talk, but it comes out wrong
Like my voice don’t stay for long
It bends before it reaches air
Like it knows nobody’s there
Memories glitch and overlap
Different versions start to snap
I can’t tell what’s real or staged
Everything feels pre-arranged
I look inward, see reflections
Splitting into intersections
Every version of me talking
But none of them are responding
I tried to anchor, tried to stay
But the ground just pulled away
Now I drift in layers of grey
Where I forget I fade each day
No signal, I’m lost inside
Echoes where I used to hide
Shadows crawl but I can’t decide
Which side of me I keep alive
No signal, I disappear
But I don’t feel gone from here
I just fade into the fear
That I was never really near
If I am real, then why does it bend?
Why does every thought descend?
Into spaces I can’t defend
Where I start and don’t end
I hear silence speaking loud
Like it’s wearing my face now
And I can’t tell if I’m proud
Or just part of the crowd
(no signal… no signal… no signal…)
(chopped, stretched, reversed vocals)
pads swell like collapsing memory
No signal, I’m lost inside
Echoes where I used to hide
Shadows crawl but I can’t decide
Which side of me I keep alive
No signal, I disappear
But I don’t feel gone from here
I just fade into the fear
That I was never really near
Everything slows
Even thought dissolves
