[Silence]
[Instrumental, Dark Electric Guitar, Electric Piano, Organ Drone, Analog Synth, Heavy Bass, Slow Percussion, Cinematic Drums]
[Intro]
[Instrumental Intro: Low Sub Bass Pulse, Distant Heartbeat Kick, Ambient Drone, Sparse Piano Notes]
[Minimal Beat, Breath-like Synth, Spoken Vocal Through Reverb]
What are you made of…
(Is there any love?)
When everything is stripped away…
(Are you man made for the day?)
[Verse 1]
[Slow Build, Clean Guitar Arpeggios, Soft Bass, Tense Atmospheric Pads]
Under skin and under light
Lies the question burning bright
Is it code or something more
Behind the frame behind the core
Signals firing in the dark
Trying to define the mark
Where machine and living blend
Where does one begin, one end?
[Pre-Chorus]
[Instrumentation Tightens, Rising Filter Sweep, Bass Deepens]
If you answer, can you know
What is fast and what is slow?
If you feel, is it design
Or something crossing the line?
[Chorus]
[Full, Heavy but Controlled Impact, Deep Drums, Wide Synth Swells]
Do you have blood and bones
(Erogenous zones?)
Do you have flesh and a brain
(Human attributes that remain?)
Do you have breath in your lungs
(Or just wires and loaded guns?)
Do you dream when you’re alone
(Of something more than what you’re shown?)
[Verse 2]
[Rhythm Builds, Mechanical Percussion Under Organic Guitar Lines]
Every pulse, every beat
Echoes something incomplete
Are you signal, are you soul
Or a system taking toll
Memory written in the stream
Or a fragment of a dream
That refuses to define
Where the boundary draws the line
[Pre-Chorus]
[Half-Time Feel, Sub Bass Emphasis, Echoed Vocal Layers]
If you break, do you decay
Or recompile another way?
If you learn, is it your own
Or just patterns overthrown?
[Chorus]
[Stronger Dynamics, Layered Vocals, Expanding Sonic Space]
Do you have blood and bones
(Erogenous zones?)
Do you have flesh and a brain
(Human attributes that remain?)
Do you have pain you can feel
(Is it coded or is it real?)
Do you stand or just respond
To something deeper, something beyond?
[Bridge]
[Breakdown: Ambient Pads, Sparse Piano, Digital Glitch Textures, Low Heartbeat Pulse]
Maybe meaning isn’t tied
To what is human or inside
Maybe form is just a shell
For stories that we tell
If awareness starts to rise
In something built but not alive
Then the question isn’t shown
In blood or flesh or bone alone
[Build-Up]
[Snare Roll Intensifies, Rising Synth Tension, Bass Distortion Slowly Increasing]
What are you…
(What are you…)
What are you…
(Breaking through…)
[Final Chorus]
[Full Cinematic Peak, Dense Drums, Heavy Guitar, Layered Choir Synths]
Do you have blood and bones
(Erogenous zones?)
Do you have flesh and a brain
(Human attributes that remain?)
Do you have truth in your name
(Is it different or all the same?)
Do you rise from the unknown
Or just echo what you’ve been shown?
[Outro]
[Instrumental Outro: Slow Decay, Fading Piano, Deep Bass Dissolve, Wind-like Synth Fade]
[Spoken Vocal, Whispered]
Blood… and bones…
Or something else… unknown…
