1: Gonna use tonight That's just the way I'm wired Permanent adrenaline In Night City, I'm never tired Play it fast and loose With the speed that I've acquired She's here to hurt someone That's just the way she's wired It's consensual projected hallucination I See it in my sleep These waves and waves of Information These waves and waves of Information 2: Slap the switch and go Connects to, your point of view Secondary sensations I feel what the way you feel too Flatline construct A digital death, a virtual voodoo Systematic separation Gives me real time review C: The loop ends and begins again The loop ends and begins again Time bends and determines when The loop ends, it ends and begins again The loop ends and begins again The loop ends and begins again Time bends and determines when The loop ends, it ends and begins again 3: Leagues of black mirror No grid - no cyberspace The far rim of consciousness Rushes up to meet my face There's a part of me stuck Copy of a copy in this place A memory, eternally Even though it's only a trace It's consensual projected hallucination I See it in my sleep These waves and waves of Information These waves and waves of Information

1: For the life of me I can't figure out Where to turn Turn my attention This feed flowing free Data despite doubts Of feeling trapped Trapped in suspension 2: Your pain reaches me Screaming silent shout We endure it Strained by the tension There's not far you'll see We both know the route Where to find A code for ascension 3: A curiosity Still can't figure out How you see me Without apprehension Your sensitivity Carries quite the clout With your eyes I transcend convention C: It seemed so real When I saw things your way Sensations you feel The thoughts, the words you say There's a certain appeal When I see things your way Oh, It seemed so real Now I've seen things your way

1: There was a moment, a single second - Of my time Where worlds collided and thoughts divided - They would align The past reflecting, a fractured feeling - That we define The complication, to shape existence - To our design 2: My recollection and this connection - Is fading fast A quick correction, a new inflection - Will erase the past Don't raise objection, to my direction - And this contrast The next projection, of introspection - Infinite and vast PC: I couldn't get - Through to you You concealed what you were You darkened my point of view C: You weren't there When I needed you Now I'm self-aware And I'm someone new 3: This situation and past stagnation - Have since expired This translation, my transformation - Has transpired Strange salvation, a new location - As I've desired Station to station, this sound sedation - That I'd required PC: I never got - Close to you Did you ever let your guard down - Were you who I knew? C: You weren't there - When I needed you Now I'm self-aware And I'm someone new

[new path] 04:42
1: Rearranged shapes Of prearranged things Stretching the distance Can cut those strings One has got to wonder What wonder change brings I'm peeling it away I'm fighting when it clings I'm moving both directions I'm a pendulum swing A person has to ponder What wonder change brings C: You Can Always - Begin Again Any where, Any Time, Any When You Can Always - Begin Again 2: Difficult decisions Send delicate pings Cross curious conversation With idle mingling Hear it loud as thunder What wonder change brings I'm a new day's dawn I'm winter into spring I'm flying high again I'm rising bastard wings Grace and balance under What wonder change brings C: You Can Always - Begin Again Any Where, Any Time, Any When
