[Verse 1]
Crawl out the basement, dust on my tongue
Your face in the mirror, the one I outran
Childhood ghost with the perfect smile
Projected so hard it burned through the tile
I wore your shadow like a second skin
Called it love while the rot set in

[Chorus]
Imago, imago, painted on the wall
I kissed the picture till the colors fall
You’re not the real one, just the dream I made
A hollow idol in the neon fade
Imago, imago, crack the glass again
Watch the perfect image bleed into the rain

[Verse 2]
Drove through the suburbs in a rusted car
Looking for the mother, the father, the scar
You wore her eyes and his silent rage
I built a temple out of teenage cage
Every touch felt like a borrowed prayer
Till the mask slipped off and left me bare

[Chorus]
Imago, imago, painted on the wall
I kissed the picture till the colors fall
You’re not the real one, just the dream I made
A hollow idol in the neon fade
Imago, imago, crack the glass again
Watch the perfect image bleed into the rain

[Bridge]
Now the basement floods with what I never said
The ideal dies quiet in an unmade bed
No more chasing ghosts through the fluorescent light
Just the empty frame and the endless night
I stare at nothing and it stares right back
The imago breaks and the truth attacks

[Final Chorus]
Imago, imago, shattered on the floor
I don’t need the picture anymore
You’re not the real one, never were the same
Just a childhood wound wearing someone else’s name
Imago… imago… fade…

[Outro]
The image dies…
And what’s left is mine…
