The third single from ionnalee, the solo project of iamamiwhoami’s front woman.
It was teased as an a cappella fragment at the end of the “SAMARITAN” video with the studio version teased on Instagram a few days before the release of “NOT HUMAN”.
[Refrain 1]
When you wake up
For when you wake up
[Verse 1]

And my tether beat
Echoes in the minds of a few
[Chorus]
Your shallow truth
Fractures and distorts our self views
And my tether beat
Echoes in the minds of a few
[Refrain 3]
For when you wake up
If you ever wake up
