Lyrics for NPC

Nobody knows me That's what they call me, You-know-who Got A void for A body No one can see me, Not even you I settle in (I settle in) I light A salt lamp, Blow the fuse I pick my skin (I pick my skin) Can't get comfy, No I refuse I can't stand the space in between Nobody sees what I see Here I go on a plane again to A place Where I literally live, Still it's all new to me Uncanny valley girl dream The main character acting like an NPC Everybody's at home Or away Or in some third place But I live in the space in between I live in the space in between I live in the space in between Not no body for nothing There's a hole in my stomach and it grew From a tear to A chasm Now I'm just like you I can't stand the space in between Nobody sees what I see Here I go on a plane again to A place Where I literally live, Still it's all new to me Uncanny valley girl dream The main character acting like an NPC Everybody's at home Or away Or in some third place But I live in the space in between I live in the space in between I live in the space in between Here I am I was nowhere, Now I live in you A light you've bent You're the prism that I'm passing through I can't stand the space in between Nobody sees what I see Here I go on a plane again to A place Where I literally live, Still it's all new to me Uncanny valley girl dream The main character acting like an NPC Everybody's at home Or away Or in some third place But I live in the space in between Oh, I live in the space in between
