In Absentia

so far from where i should be
but this lonely road is all i know
a past and future without a present
i put my life on hold, see this through
and every breath i take
brings another dream to life
and every day that passes
i let it pass me by
i’m only halfway human
the rest of me is machine
i am reborn
i am reborn
every day that i wake to a foreign sun
and every night that “i still miss someone”
i am uncomfortable always
i’m not alone
a temporary home
nowhere to call my own
watch the world you love you by
and i can’t help but wonder if it’s getting better
and you can’t help but make things
any fucking worse
i’m only halfway human
the rest of me is machine
i am reborn
