Ghost In The Machine

I'm walking on this wire In a world of code and fire
Every step's a question Is this world my true reflection
The pixels paint a picture But the truth's a distant mixture
Reality's a riddle Caught in an endless middle
Am I a shadow? A ghost in the machine
Or is this life just a digital dream
I can't be sure if I'm awake I'm a ghost in the machine
Am I lost in a code? Or is this world as it seems
I see the faces flicker Like static on the screen
The voices call my name But it feels like a preset scene
I touch the walls, they ripple Like water under moon
In this maze of doubt I'm searching for a tool
Am I a shadow? A ghost in the machine
Or is this life just a digital dream
I can't be sure if I'm awake I'm a ghost in the machine
Am I lost in a code? Or is this world as it seems
The lines are getting blurry The night is turning cold
I'm falling through the circuits The truth is getting old
The echo of my heart beats A rhythm I can't hold
Am I dreaming in this matrix Or waking from the mold
Am I a shadow? A ghost in the machine
Or is this life just a digital dream
I can't be sure if I'm awake I'm a ghost in the machine
Am I lost in a code? Or is this world as it seems
The darkness starts to shatter The light begins to bleed
I wake up from the nightmare But doubt is still my creed
Was it all a dream within a dream? A layer yet unseen
Or did I just switch simulations Trapped in the machine
Am I a shadow? A ghost in the machine
Or is this life just a digital dream
I can't be sure if I'm awake I'm a ghost in the machine
Am I lost in a code? Or is this world as it seems
