Aili G - Chasing Distant Light

I was drivin' down that road, not a care in the world,
When the lights went out, and my life unfurled
Now I'm driftin' in the darkness, I can't feel my hands,
But my thoughts are still alive, in these cold metal lands.

They took my memories, every dream and fear,
Uploaded my soul, now I'm engineered.
Woke up in the silence, no heartbeat, no breath,
In a void of endless space, a mind beyond death.

I'm the ghost in the machine, searching for the signs,
Sent to find the echoes of alien minds.
A journey without end, through the endless night,
In this ship, I'm forever, chasing distant light.

I see the stars ahead, but I'm trapped in a frame,
No flesh, no bone, no voice to claim.
Just a whisper in the circuits, a pulse in the wire,
Driven by the code, and an unquenchable fire.

The mission's clear, no turning back,
To explore the unknown, down every track.
But the loneliness is deep, in this endless sky,
I'm a man without a body, just a digital cry.

I'm the ghost in the machine, searching for the signs,
Sent to find the echoes of alien minds.
A journey without end, through the endless night,
In this ship, I'm forever, chasing distant light.

Will I ever find a friend, in this vast unknown?
Or am I destined to wander, always alone?
The stars are my companions, the void my embrace,
But in the silence, I long for a familiar face.

Years pass like seconds, in this eternal drift,
My memories start to fade, like a shifting mist.
But the mission drives me forward, no rest, no sleep,
In the search for life, across the cosmic deep.

I'm the ghost in the machine, searching for the signs,
Sent to find the echoes of alien minds.
A journey without end, through the endless night,
In this ship, I'm forever, chasing distant light.

So I sail on through the darkness, a shadow in the code,
A man who once was, now a mind that glowed.
In this eternal voyage, I'll never be free,
A prisoner of the stars, that's what I'll always be.
