[Intro] Static in my jaw Teeth grind Tongue split Every thought Lagging Corrupted (hah) Heartbeat desync Left eye twitching Mirror full of errors Staring back Glitching [A] I bite the wire Black out the sky You want a warning? I’m the warning sign Red flag Red hands Pulled from the fire You call it madness I call it trying [Chorus] I am the fractured Fractured signal Cut the cord I’ll still break through Every error feels so final But I keep crashing back to you I am the fractured Fractured signal Overload and follow-through If I destroy this faulty system Tell me Do I vanish too? [A] Tongue made of sand Words fall Misfire Every “I’m fine” Tastes like barbed wire You say “breathe in” Like it’s that simple I’m counting veins Like ticking symbols [Fast Section] Keep your distance (back!) I’m a shorted fuse Every comfort you offer Feels like abuse Pulse at a thousand Thoughts at a million If I slow down now I might start feeling [Pre-Chorus] Who do you see When my mask cuts skin? If I fall apart Do you climb back in? [Chorus] I am the fractured Fractured signal Cut the cord I’ll still break through Every error feels so final But I keep crashing back to you I am the fractured Fractured signal Overload and follow-through If I destroy this faulty system Tell me Do I vanish too? [Breakdown: offbeat] [tempo collapse Stuttering kicks Glitch vocals chopping single words] “error” “human” “system” “failed” I peel my code Off my own bones If I’m re-written Is it still my soul? [Bridge: violin chases] I don’t want calm I want control I don’t want “better” I want my own If this is sick Then let it spread At least this chaos Feels like my head (yeah) [Final Chorus] I am the fractured Fractured signal Cut the cord I’ll still break through Every error feels so final But I keep crashing back to you I am the fractured Fractured signal Overload I burn straight through If I erase this broken system What’s left of me When it’s not you? [Outro] Heartbeat desync Screen goes white One last scream Then hard-cut night
