Modelling ME Modelling YOU Adaku

Standing in the mirror of a thousand eyes
Trying to separate the truth from the disguise
You look at me, but who do you see
A ghost of yourself or a shadow of me
I build a picture of what’s in your mind
Reading every signal that you left behind
A calculation running deep inside
Where your expectations and my shadows collide

'Cause I am modeling how you are modeling me modeling you
A hall of mirrors that we both walk through
You predict my move before I make my play
I predict what you think I’m about to say
It’s a endless loop, a recursive view
I am modeling how you are modeling me modeling you

Two steps forward in a game of chess
Guessing what you’re thinking that I’m gonna guess
You think I’m confident, so I act the part
You think I’m guarded, so I hide my heart
Are we real lovers or synthetic roles
Simulations taking over control
I’m reading your mind reading mine right now
Lost in the why, searching for the how

'Cause I am modeling how you are modeling me modeling you
A hall of mirrors that we both walk through
You predict my move before I make my play
I predict what you think I’m about to say
It’s a endless loop, a recursive view
I am modeling how you are modeling me modeling you

Layer on layer, three, four, five deep
Thoughts in the background that never fall asleep
Is there an "I" left inside this frame
Or are we just echoes playing out the game
Look past the projection, look past the screen
Find the real person sitting in between

Modeling you... modeling me
Where does the reflection end
Where do we start to just be
Recursion fades out
Just you and me
