I hear you talk, I see your lips moving. The shape of your mouth forming letters after letters. I smile and agree. Eyes crinkle with mirth, My voice booms in the space between us and the silence of the universe. I see you, I hear you, But do I really? I'm there, but I'm not. I feel, but I don't. I smile, when I feel pain And I talk when I'm not sure what to say. It's not me you're talking to, But my body responding to you, Like an autopilot.

Autopilot
I hear you talk, I see your lips moving. The shape of your mouth forming letters after letters. I smile and agree. Eyes crinkle with mirth, My voice booms in the space between us and the silence of the universe. I see you, I hear you, But do I really? I'm there, but I'm not. I feel, but I don't. I smile, when I feel pain And I talk when I'm not sure what to say. It's not me you're talking to, But my body responding to you, Like an autopilot.
