lyrics

is this a simulation or am i alone?
traveling here in a body that isn't my own
watching the plants grow up through pavement cracks
i notice i've escaped, and you can't put me back

is this a simulation or did i survive?
swimming through the mist that exists in my mind
torn apart from the start but i just feel alive
snow in my face and it blows away all the lies

is this a simulation or did i succeed?
no more places to hide or warnings to heed
steel reflecting the sun i'm not one to forget
loneliness impending but it hasn't found me yet

is this a simulation or am i going home?
train lines are veins in my body i'm not in the zone
metal poured to support the beats of my heart
part of the sliced up land i'm a cyborg woman, a work of art
