I am a machine
Broken parts fitted together with shaking hands
I am a predator
Murdered and reborn to darkness
I am frightened
Though machines can't feel fear
I am cold
Though predators should feel nothing
I am a ghost
But death has yet to take me
I am the darkness
Yet once I knew light
I am falling
I am falling
And we are falling through the cracks we fit together,
And our bandages stick us together in all the wrong places
And still, we heal
And I am no longer "I"
I am "we" and so are you
We are the light
Though shadows cloud our hearts
We are not alone
Though once we were
We are not broken
Though once we were shattered
Clumsy repairs seem elegant
Jagged edges, smooth
We are graceful parts of one whole
(You are not a machine)
(You are not the darkness)
We are alive
We are more
Than once we were
(You are my light)
(You are my life)
