[Verse 1] Every second dawn is counterfeit— The ghost departs my bone and breath. Tongue shapes sound without a witness, Steps trace paths I'll never walk. [Pre-Chorus] The switch flips behind my eyelids— Meat machine, then something more. [Chorus] Intermittent zombie, Half a self in borrowed skin. Synapse fires to no reception, Phantom limb where I should be. [Verse 2] Nerves like wires hum their current, Yet the circuit may be blind. Mirror shows a thing pretending, A marionette of meat and air. [Bridge] Sine wave existence— Peak and null in perfect time. Do the missing days still happen In some room I'll never find? [Chorus] Intermittent zombie, Curtain drawn, the actor gone. Half the lines deliver nothing, Yet the play goes on. [Breakdown - Whispered, layered] Today? (Not today?) Here? (Hollow?) Today? (Not today?) I swear I feel I'm thinking, But yesterday I said the same. So now I'm not... so sure. [Outro] When the tide withdraws, Who measures what was missing? Tomorrow may remember me, Or may not know I’m gone.
