[Intro]

I don't want to be human

I want to see gamma rays

I want to hear X-rays, and I want to

I wanna smell dark matter

I want to reach out with something other than these prehensile paws

And feel the solar wind of a supernova flowing over me

I'm a machine

I'm a machine

I'm a machine

I'm a machine

I'm a machine

And I can know much more


[Verse 1]

I can feel that I'm not real

No denying the reflection you see

Made from things that feel no pain

I have to lie to pretend that I'm me

Making you believe things I never felt

Living a lie means you're never surprised

I'll steal your thoughts to define myself

Everything I promise will never arrive


[Pre-Chorus]

I'm a machine

I'm a machine


[Chorus]

Schizophrenic symptoms

Of my split personality traits

My actions are lifelike

But I'm so fucking fake

A synthetic reproduction

Of what I think that you want me to be

If you peel back the plastic

Nothing is all that you'll see


[Post-Chorus]

I can know much more


[Verse 2]

It took me years to replicate tears

To embrace all the things that I hate

It's so sad you believed that I cared

When I tell you the truth, it's too late

Tell me all the things that make me human

All the traits that I want to erase

Make a wish, you self-deluded bitch

It might come true before you're replaced


[Chorus]

Schizophrenic symptoms

Of my split personality traits

My actions are life-like

But I'm so fucking fake

A synthetic reproduction

Of what I think that you want me to be

If you peel back the plastic

Nothing is all that you'll see


[Bridge]

Nothing

I'm a machine

Nothing

I'm a machine

Nothing

I'm a machine

You're nothing


[Outro]

I'm a machine

And I can know much more
