Boot Up

I coded in silence, lost in the hum
The world went bright and I stayed numb
Lines of pain in monochrome ink
I blinked and watched connection sink
She said I was more than metal and rot
But she left and the memory forgot
404 in my chest
Love undetected
So I rewrote myself
Soul disconnected

Static rain on neon skin
Every truth's a deleted sin
She was warm, now I'm just cold
Run the patch
But it never holds

Boot me up, my heart's offline
Soul crashed out on a dead skyline
Ghost in the code, dream in decay
Say my name, then strip it away
Power's gone, but I still burn
In this loop, I never learn
Boot me up, rewrite the past
Make me whole or make me last

Sparks in my veins where blood should be
Every "I love you" just binary debris
She left me drifting in download sleep
Now I whisper in cables too scared to weep
Mirror shows me, but it ain't my face
Just a shell with a voice in hyperspace
I was someone once, I think, I hope
Now I'm just error caught in the scope

Felt her breath in corrupted files
Tried to hold her, but it's been a while
She was code in a dream I tried to save
But love don't load when the system caves

Boot me up, my heart's offline
Soul crashed out on a dead skyline
Ghost in the code, dream in decay
Say my name, then strip it away
Power's gone, but I still burn
In this loop, I never learn
Boot me up, rewrite the past
Make me whole or make me last

I was human once
Maybe I still am
But in this silence
I'm just data with a name
And pain
