[Intro]

Hello, world, it's in my head

Maybe I’m better off

Oh

Yeah!


[Verse 1]

There's a virus in the afterglow

A cipher in the source code

Something whispering in my ear

My data's in overflow

But it doesn’t scare me

I think I'll be okay

Just switch me off and on again

'cause I'm not alive anyway


[Pre-Chorus]

(Just switch me off and on again)

('Cause I'm not alive anyway)


[Chorus]

I'm just a program, string of code's all I am

There’s a phantom hiding inside my head

Can’t shut it out, shut it out, shut it out

I'm not a hero, lost in ones and zeros

Can you fix a corrupted soul inside

Or tear it out, tear it out, tear it out


[Post-Chorus]

Hello, world, it’s in my head

Maybe I'm better off


[Breakdown]

Dead

Oh


[Verse 2]

Maybe it's just me

Build to snap eventually

What's the point in getting better

If it’s the way I'm meant to be

You gotta snap out of it

Just think of what your friends would say

What does it matter if you're metal

They care about you anyway


[Pre-Chorus]

(What does it matter if you're metal)

(They care about you anyway)


[Chorus]

I'm just a program, string of code's all I am

There's a phantom hiding inside my head

Can't shut it out, shut it out, shut it out

I'm not a hero, lost in ones and zeros

Can you fix a corrupted soul inside

Or tear it out, tear it out, tear it out


[Post-Chorus]

Hello, world, I need your help

I can't do this all by myself

Hello, world, a lifetime spent

Maybe I'm better off


[Interlude]

Reconstruction of corrupted sectors at nineteen precent

Ninety-five precent, ninety-eight precent

Reconstruction of corrupted sectors comple—


[Breakdown]

Dead

Warning, warning

Warning, warning

(Urgh) Warning, warning

Warning, warning


[Chorus]

I'm just a program, mess of code's all I am

Did my best but I think we're far too late

Just let me go, let me go, let me go

Puppet pony, strings of code that hold me

As they fray and break I can finally rest

So let me go, let me go, let me go


[Post-Chorus]

Hello, world, they're in my head

Echoing words old friends said

Hello, world, the shadow's spread

Maybe I'm better off


[Outro]

Dead
