False Light
// TRANSMISSION LYRICS — TX_044
Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The glass hums back when I lean too near,
My face bends wrong, but she looks sincere.
Her eyes move late, a half-beat slow,
A rhythm my pulse forgot to know.
Each breath repeats through looping haze,
I mouth her name—it fades away.
The mirror shakes, the lights all spin,
Who’s trapped outside? Who’s looking in?
[Pre-Chorus]
Soft white burns across my skin,
Every flaw erased again.
[Chorus]
False light—too bright to see,
It blinds the parts still real in me.
The truth refracts, the edges gleam,
I am the ghost inside her dream.
[Verse 2]
Her mouth forms words I never said,
A gesture stitched from borrowed threads.
She smiles—a program’s perfect art,
But the warmth won’t reach her heart.
My fingers meet her through the pane,
Two shadows blur, the same and strange.
For every truth, a lie remains—
Reflected life, encoded pain.
If she could see through all this glass,
Would she know what I’ve become at last?
If I could step into her skin,
Would I be lost, or born again?
[Outro]
False light—too bright to see,
It burns away what’s left of me.
Erase the frame, undo the glow,
She lives the life I’ll never know.
