no one's alive

you could almost be me

what do you mean

"oh, nothing, nothing at all"

room 8 top floor

i've seen this man before

are you real?



is it me, is it you



cold metal voice

of no one's friend it could be mine

my reflection

is no longer me at all

am i a fake

of the man and are you of me

are you real?



is it me, is it you



relax in a backroom

oh me oh my oh wouldn't you

i know your face

your connection is broken, boy

nothing is new

remember? i've got no time

are you real?



is it me, is it you



real? real? real?
