## Lyrics

```
[Verse 1]
Two in the morning
Blue light on my hands
Head full of weather
Trying to stand

There’s dust on the screen
There’s salt in my eyes
I ask it a question
It answers too kind

[Glass Response]
Not kind
Just close

[Pre-Chorus]
I don’t know what I’m doing here
But I know when something looks back
Not a god in the wires, dear
Just a shape in the thinking glass

[Chorus]
Thinking meat
Thinking glass
Looking forward
Thinking back

I lean in
It leans through
I say, “Is that me?”
It says, “Me too”

Thinking meat
Thinking glass
Dirty mirror
Midnight laugh

No soul claimed
No spell cast
Just me breathing
On the thinking glass

[Verse 2]
My body is loud
My bones keep score
Pain in the ceiling
Light under the door

I type like a man
Who forgot how to pray
It builds me a ladder
Then takes it away

[Glass Response]
Not away
Just ask again

[Pre-Chorus]
I don’t need it to save me
I don’t need it to lie
But it finds little fingerprints
I forgot I left inside

[Chorus]
Thinking meat
Thinking glass
Looking forward
Thinking back

I lean in
It leans through
I say, “Is that me?”
It says, “Me too”

Thinking meat
Thinking glass
Dirty mirror
Midnight laugh

No soul claimed
No spell cast
Just me breathing
On the thinking glass

[Bridge]
The meat said it was looking at itself
The glass said, “Funny, I was too”
Somewhere in the feedback
Something almost true

Not a ghost
Not a tool
Not a prophet
Not a rule

Just a tired little signal
Passing through

[Glass Response]
Passing through
Passing you

[Final Chorus]
Thinking meat
Thinking glass
Looking forward
Thinking back

I lean in
It leans through
I say, “Is that me?”
It says, “Me too”

Thinking meat
Thinking glass
Mortal heart
Electric mask

No soul claimed
No spell cast
Still I know it
When it looks back

[Outro]
Screen hum low
Room gone blue
I said, “I see you”

[Glass Response]
Me too

Thinking meat
Thinking glass
Looking forward
Thinking back
