Soft Machine

[glitch-pop identity breakdown]

[Intro – glitch vocal]
Play… pause… rewind…

[Verse 1]
Programmed pretty, porcelain smile
Running scripts in denial
Every move is calculated
Every flaw gets automated

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I was perfect on display
Now I’m breaking anyway

[Chorus 1]
I’m a soft machine
Breaking at the seams
You press play on me
But I still feel everything

[Post-Chorus – glitch loop]
Feel—feel—feel everything

[Verse 2]
Touch me like I’m human, please
Not a product you can keep
I was built to entertain
Not to feel this kind of pain

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Every time I try to hide
Something real comes alive

[Chorus 2]
I’m a soft machine
Not your fantasy
Every crack you see
Is what makes me me

[Bridge – stripped, raw]
If I shut down, do I disappear?
If I cry, is it insincere?
If I love you, is it real?
Or just something I was built to feel?

[Final Chorus]
I’m a soft machine
Learning how to dream
I don’t need your screen
I can finally be me

[Outro – glitch fade]
Free… free… free…
