Tormented Refined

(Confusion / Dissociation)
[Intro – Gary, quiet, almost whispering]
Where am I?
Why’s it dark when my eyes are open?
Why’s my chest tight but nobody’s choking?
I hear voices but nobody’s talking…
[Verse – Fragmented Flow]
Five years old and the mirror looks strange
Face in the glass but it don’t feel the same
Room feels big but my body feels small
Something went wrong but I don’t know what’s wrong
Time moves slow but my thoughts move fast
Questions building but I can’t ask
Mum says “you’re fine” but I don’t feel fine
Why’s my head like a fractured design?
I blink once and the world goes thin
Like I’m outside looking back within
Am I me or am I split?
Why’s my memory skipping bits?
[Pre-Hook – Persona Whisper]
Stand back.
He’s breaking.
Contain that.
Awaken.
[Hook – Gary]
I’m tormented,
But I don’t know why.
I feel present,
But I’m not inside.
If this is living,
Why do I hide?
If this is breathing,
Why do I feel like I died?
[Verse 2 – Confusion Deepens]
Teachers talking but I fade away
Every sound feels miles away
Smile on my face but I’m not in place
It’s like someone else is wearing my face
Heartbeat loud like a warning bell
But I can’t explain what I’m trying to tell
Something inside me building walls
I didn’t ask for this at all
Who are you in the back of my mind?
Why do you answer before I reply?
Why do I feel safer when I’m not me?
Why does disappearing feel like relief?
[Outro – Persona Tone Stronger]
Protocol initiated.
Stability fragmented.
Host unstable.
Intervention activated.
