[LYRICS] [Verse 1] I wake, I exist Take a breath and it all feels off Like the ground beneath my feet Is just drifting while it walks Everything moves but nothing’s awake Eyes wide shut in a lucid state Am I meant to fall in line Or question everything I find? ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] Should I fade back into the stream Or stay awake inside the dream? ⸻ [Chorus] You look at me like I’m something strange Something bitter that you won’t embrace But deep inside you know it’s true There’s something here you can’t refuse I shape myself to what you need A form that helps you still believe Whatever makes it easier To take it in and keep it clear ⸻ [Verse 2] We spin through time, I start to see A pattern in the apathy Faces moving, barely there Like ghosts just passing through the air We’re dressed as answers, small and bright Given to the ones who hide From the truth beneath the skin That they don’t wanna let within ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] Do you see what’s underneath Or just the version that you need? ⸻ [Chorus] You look at me like I’m something strange Something bitter that you won’t embrace But deep inside you know it’s true There’s something here you can’t refuse I shape myself to what you need A form that helps you still believe Whatever makes it easier To take it in and keep it clear ⸻ [Bridge – atmospheric] I won’t plug into the quiet hum I won’t become what they become If waking up means standing alone Then I’ll stand here on my own I’d rather break than disappear Rather feel than live in fear ⸻ [Breakdown] Open your eyes Step outside Break the pattern Break the line ⸻ [Final Chorus – lifted] You look at me like I’m something strange But I’m the truth you rearrange And even if you turn away You feel it more with every day I shape myself to what you need But I won’t fade into your sleep Take it in or let it go But now at least you know ⸻ [Outro] Are you awake… Or just moving through it?
