Circuitry

Crawling through these hollow spaces, Every breath a toxic trace. Gears corrode, they grind to dust— A hollow shell, no trust, no trust. Feel it fracture, splinter, shake, Steel claws rake through my veins. Wires coil, my mind’s a cage— No escape, no escape. I am the disease, The creeping infection. I rip myself to shreds Just to feel connection. (Just to feel alive.) Strip me down to circuits, Watch the sparks decay— Burn it all away. (Burn it all away.) Wires pulse where blood should flow, Static hums where silence grows. Every mirror cracks the frame— A stranger wears my name, my name. Feel it fracture, splinter, shake, Steel claws rake through my veins. Wires coil, my mind’s a cage— No escape, no escape. I am the disease, The creeping infection. I rip myself to shreds Just to feel connection. (Just to feel alive.) Strip me down to circuits, Watch the sparks decay— Burn it all away. (Burn it all away.) Deeper, deeper, (Down, down.) Until I’m hollowed out. The walls are closing in— (Crush, crush.) The walls are closing in— (Crush, crush.) TEAR THE FLESH AWAY, PEEL IT TO THE BONE. WHAT’S BURIED IN THE ASHES? WHAT’S LEFT OF ME ALONE? WHAT’S INSIDE OF ME? WHAT’S INSIDE OF ME? JUST A VOID WHERE I USED TO BE. I am the disease, (Rotting from within.) I am the infection, (Spreading through my skin.) I tear myself apart, (Piece by fucking piece.) Just to feel something, (Just to fucking breathe.) I have always been here, I will always remain. I am the virus, I am the chain. (System failure.) (System failure.) (Terminate.)
