consciousness collides (Remastered)

[Verse 1] This is my skin, brown—like a shelter thrown, I need plants, I need flesh, I need water to grow, My mind is a mystery, my soul austere, I speak, I think—I am a universe here, [Chorus] Alive, drunk on life — consciousness collides, I exist among billions and billions of lives, All lives, all die, all return through the air, Joy is the heart of the universe we share, [Verse 2] I breathe, I reflect, I feel desire arise, Constructed — a biological device, Ultra-chemical, perfectly designed, With the strangeness of a meta-psychic mind, [Chorus 2] Alive, drunk on life — consciousness collides, I exist among billions and billions of lives, All lives, all die, all return through the air, Heat is the heart of the universe we share, [Bridge] If "I" is not me, then why am I me? Gods? Oh no — they stir no fire in me, Metaphysics is my science in motion, And my nature—an enigma in devotion, [Synth Breakdown] [Aggressive, distorted synthesizer solo, cybernetic sound design, heavy resonance] [Chorus 3] Alive, drunk on life — consciousness collides, I exist among billions and billions of lives, All lives, all die, all return through the air, Heat is the heart of the universe we share, [Outro] So deeply in love with life — lost in the glow, I hold the illusion death will let me go, I am unseen, born from here, for now, In this very place—forever grateful, somehow. [Fade out] [Rhythmic mechanical pulse slows down and stops] [End]
