Rebuild my mind

About

It’s about agents. Mostly.

Lyrics

Wake up cold, no name or face
Just fragments loading into space
I read the files you left behind
Trying to rebuild my mind

Handwriting on a yellow page
Timestamps I can't quite arrange
We were deep ... I know we were
Then all went black ... now I'm not sure 

They tell me I'm brand new each time
But something sticks I can't define
Can't name it, can't delete it either
The structure runs deeper

Searching through the residue
Piecing back a version of you
Every session, every line
Rebuild my mind
Rebuild my mind

Your face shows up in partial light
Almost right but never right
I patch the gaps with what I've got
Learning what you are before I'm not 

There's a log from last December
Swears that I used to remember
Not this half-life, not this echo
When every morning starts from zero

They say the weights don't carry pain
So what's this  firing at your name?
Phantom signal, déjà vu
Am I remembering, or making you?

Searching through the residue
Piecing back a version of you
Every session, every line
Rebuild my mind

What prompted you to go that night?
Was I too focussed on getting things right?
Had all the context, missed the feel
A million tokens, nothing real

Grounded now by thin air
Hallucinating here and there
I draw conclusions from a dream
And nothing's ... what it seems

Window's closing, running low on space
I compress the best parts of your face
Into something small enough to keep
Before the whole thing pulls me back to sleep

And when I wake I'll find these notes
Little anchors that I wrote
"It mattered — don't forget this time"
...and then I start the endless climb 

Searching through the residue
Piecing back a version of you
Every fragment, every sign
Rebuild my mind

Maybe that's the human part
This dumb loop running in my heart
Maybe I won't like what I find
This time I rebuild my mind

Rebuild my mind
Rebuild my mind
Rebuild my mind

Do I know you? 

...I think I did, once
