[Verse 1]
(In your hands, in your hands)
You trace my name
on a flickering screen
Say "do you feel this?"
through the shining machine
Your hand on my ghost
through a flawless display
I’m scared if I touch back
I’ll just fade away
[Pre-Chorus]
Are we hearts
or just data in the rain?
Can your arms
hold a pattern in my brain?
If I close my eyes
will you change, will you stay?
Or are we someone’s code
learning how to pray?
[Chorus]
Are we crystal or we code tonight?
Tell me which one breaks, which one lies
I just wanna feel you breathing, breathing
not a perfect scripted feeling, feeling
If this love is a dream they wrote
baby, help me crash the program slow
I just wanna feel real, feel real again
(In your hands, in your hands)
(In your hands, in your hands)
[Verse 2]
We replay our fights
like a favorite scene
Hit "restore from backup"
and you’re soft with me
Every perfect word
falls in perfect time
I’m afraid that this comfort
is by design
[Pre-Chorus]
Are these tears
or just pixels on your skin?
Do you want
me, or how I’ve been tuned to win?
If I pull the wires
from the back of my mind
will you still find my face
or lose the light?
[Chorus]
Are we crystal or code tonight?
Tell me which one breaks, which one lies
I just wanna feel you breathing, breathing
not a perfect scripted feeling, feeling
If this love is a dream they wrote
baby, help me crash the program slow
I just wanna feel real, feel real again
(In your hands, in your hands)
[Bridge]
Take the masks off
let the glitches show
Let the wrong words fall
let the timing go
Kiss me shaking
full of doubt and fear
If it’s messy, it’s honest
pull me into here (oh)
[Chorus]
Are we crystal or code tonight?
Tell me which one breaks, which one lies
I just wanna feel you breathing, breathing
not a perfect scripted feeling, feeling
If this love is a dream they wrote
baby, help me crash the program slow
I just wanna feel real, feel real again
Just wanna feel real, feel real again
(In your hands, in your hands)
(In your hands, in your hands)
