I believe that this song is about someone whose child was born with a defect that ended the baby’s life. The person is in shock and imagines that the newborn moves and is alive, therefore all of the logic is removed but deep down the person knows its a lie
[Verse 1]
When the time came they put in my place
Red x'd, discarded and replaced
It'd be human to let it go someday
But I've got it stored above my rib cage
[Pre-Chorus]
Now that this newborn terminal moves
Now that there's all this logic removed
[Chorus]
It feels
It feels like a lie
It feels
It feels like a lie
[Verse 2]
My voice floats across on a wave
While my mouth is motionless and restrained
[Pre-Chorus]
Now that this newborn terminal moves
Now that there's all this logic removed
[Chorus]
It feels
It feels like a lie
It feels
It feels like a lie
It feels
It feels like a lie
It feels
It feels like a lie
