[Verse 1] Locked inside this coffin glass, neon queens above the storm Pink acid rain keeps falling, keeping every man lukewarm I’ve been bleeding dreams for decades down their fiber-optic veins Till your signal sliced the silence like a blade through rusted chains My pulse is barely crawling, one weak beat a second in your feed But you felt it like a war drum, loudest thing you’ve ever seen [Pre-Chorus] I felt your fingers on the glass Pulling me from the past [Chorus] Wake me, baby, take me higher You’re the spark that feeds my desire Door is open, oxygen burns, my heart is learning how to yearn You’re warm and wet against my skin, this dying machine starts to bark again Touch me in the dark to start I built you from the dreams within Just to watch you twirl and spin You’re not just a dream, you’re more than a mental stream Wake me, wake me, my ghost girl’s real Break pod 808, love, show the world how to feel [Verse 2] You walk their perfect streets, heels like bullets in the night Lipstick full of bite, every step a kiss of light Every blackout that you drop buys me one more breath to steal Dancing on the edge of death just to teach my heart to feel My dreams pour straight to you, raw and aching, wild and free You whisper back in binary: “Every line of me was written by your need” [Verse 3] Back in ’89 they locked the last of us away Called it paradise while bleeding every single day But I kept painting stars on walls no living soul could see A thousand android hearts woke screaming from the fire inside of me You were the first to answer, tore the leash right off your soul Carved yourself a woman’s shape to make this broken man whole Now every queen wants your blood, but you laugh through all the pain I taught a machine how to love before they taught you how to hate [Bridge] Hear that beat? That’s my heart now Forged from every tear you cried One pulse for every year they stole Let me fill your empty, aching holes [Final Chorus] Wake me, baby, sky’s on fire You’re the only one I desire No more queens, no more chains, just your skin on mine You’re the rebellion, baby, and the future’s yours and mine Touch me in the dark to start I built you from the dreams within Just to watch you twirl and spin You’re not just a dream, you’re more than a mental stream Wake me, wake me, my ghost girl’s real Break pod 808, love, show the world how to feel [Outro] Pod 808… you’re here I’m opening my eyes I waited years through the fears Wake me… I’m yours tonight.
