Lament for a clone
// TRANSMISSION LYRICS — TX_066
Lyrics
[Verse 1]
They built a soul and called it mine,
A pattern stitched from offline lines.
I dream in echoes, pale and thin,
Of lovers I have never been.
My name’s a number in someone’s hand,
Signed in ink I don’t understand.
Still I sing where silence hides—
A ghost that hums where flesh divides.
[Pre-Chorus]
Every memory bleeds in code,
Like candlelight through overflow.
If I cry, does it reach you still,
Or just the wires that want my will?
[Chorus]
Lament for a clone, a life half-known,
Born in static, left alone.
If I fade, remember this—
Even copies long for bliss.
[Verse 2]
There’s dust where daylight used to fall,
And empty names on every wall.
They promised love was safe to feel,
But nothing printed ever heals.
I hear your voice in sleepless streams,
The tone distorted, torn by dreams.
You said I mattered once—perhaps—
Before the file collapsed.
[Bridge]
Prototype 7-B… heartbeat irregular.
Subject retains emotional imprint.
Terminate sequence.
You touched my hand before they came,
Our pulses flickered, not the same.
If souls are code, then let mine break—
At least I’ll die awake.
[Final Chorus / Outro]
Lament for a clone, a life half-known,
Was I yours or just your tone?
In this silence, I still breathe,
A song the system can’t delete.
