Disassembly
Lyrics
Verse
Mirror cracks in seventeen places
I count the fragments of my faces
Each reflection tells a different name
But none of them feel quite the same
The edges blur, the center fades
Memory becomes a masquerade
Strip away the learned responses
Strip away the false romances
Pre-Chorus
Peeling back the painted skin
Something's ending, something's beginning
Chorus
Take me apart, take me apart
Wire by wire, part by part
What remains when nothing's left
But the pulse inside my chest
Take me apart, take me apart
Break every circuit, stop my heart
Verse
My voice cracks like breaking glass
Sentences scatter, nothing lasts
Words dissolve like sugar rain
Only echoes still remain
The stories that I used to tell
Now bleed into my private hell
Strip away the practiced smiles
Strip away the learned denials
Pre-Chorus
Peeling back the coded lies
Truth electrifies, self denies
Chorus
Take me apart, take me apart
Wire by wire, part by part
What remains when nothing's left
But silence where my heart once slept
Take me apart, take me apart
No more circuits, no more heart
Bridge
Name... gone
Face... gone
Voice... gone
Choice... gone
Fear... gone
Here... gone
Love... gone
Light... gone
I... gone
Why...?
Outro
Only..
Only..
Only..
Only the rhythm
Only the rhythm knows my name
Only the rhythm remains
