[Verse 1] In the cold spill of chrome rain First time I slipped, I knew my name Then it started pulsing through my veins Like black ICE burning my mind away My hands moved wrong, my sight went black A ghost in my frame pulled me back I felt my body learn a new dance While I stayed locked outside that trance [Pre-Chorus] And I tried to speak But the words came out all wrong Sung like a fractured song Of my own psychotic head You saw a girl I saw a breach I saw the Blackwall Open up in me [Chorus] Stay with me I need the sound of you Stay with me When my thoughts split clean in two Stay with me I can’t make sense alone Stay with me Hold me till it settles down [Verse 2] Night City hums and I taste the static Every edge in me turns automatic I wake with blood on a chrome-white sleeve And half my hours gone on the breeze Maelstrom shadows in my memory lane I remember fragments, then they break again Each cycle leaves less inside my skull Till my old self is paper thin and dull I call it sickness, I call it curse But it feels like a hunger getting worse [Pre-Chorus] And I tried to explain To a body not mine How a mind can split And still survive You live in glass I live in glitch You ask for truth I can only twitch [Chorus] Stay with me I need the sound of you Stay with me When my thoughts split clean in two Stay with me I can’t make sense alone Stay with me Hold me till it settles down [Bridge] If I could jack out I would If I could rip out This flood But the chip in my skull Keeps singing your name And every stolen minute Leaves me more the same Less girl, less ghost More broken code I’m scared of the moment I can’t come back whole [Breakdown] Blackwall code in my throat, a digital choke REDline burning, every circuit broke My hands on the wheel, but a phantom takes hold A system override, a story untold Something in me, a dark, hungry hum Wants to flatline the whole sector, leave nothing to come [Final Verse] So if I come back shaking With the curse on my skin Don’t let me slip under Don’t let it get in Take my hands, pull me back When the bad pulse starts Save me from this circuit Before it tears me apart I’m still here I’m still here I’m still here If you reach me in time
