Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
The neck is the same, but not the body.
How it came to me I’ll never know
All wounds will heal except maybe the mind’s
There’s an alternating red and amber glow
My outlook is grim, I’m not responding
My memories leak. I’m frozen in fear
Shut down and restart. Kickstart my heart.
The diagnosis is in, but the cause is unclear.
[Chorus A]
Is this real because I feel like I’m not
Does not compute. Am I human or bot
Self aware terrified by my thoughts
Holding on with all that I’ve got (paranoid Android)
[Verse 2]
Are these illusions of mine or are they delusions
Is it safe to say it doesn't matter anyway
When I sleep, if I sleep, do I dream of electric sheep
Do I have a purpose or just living day to day
Wake up, time to die, more human than human
It’s a shame all I've done will come to be in vain
I guess I’ve never lived but then again who does?
All those moments lost in time like tears in the rain
[Chorus B]
Is this real because I feel like I’m not
Does not compute. Am I human or bot
Self aware terrified by my thoughts
Holding on with all that I’ve got (paranoid Android)
The neck is the same, but not the body.
How it came to me I’ll never know
All wounds will heal except maybe the mind’s
There’s an alternating red and amber glow
My outlook is grim, I’m not responding
My memories leak. I’m frozen in fear
Shut down and restart. Kickstart my heart.
The diagnosis is in, but the cause is unclear.
[Chorus A]
Is this real because I feel like I’m not
Does not compute. Am I human or bot
Self aware terrified by my thoughts
Holding on with all that I’ve got (paranoid Android)
[Verse 2]
Are these illusions of mine or are they delusions
Is it safe to say it doesn't matter anyway
When I sleep, if I sleep, do I dream of electric sheep
Do I have a purpose or just living day to day
Wake up, time to die, more human than human
It’s a shame all I've done will come to be in vain
I guess I’ve never lived but then again who does?
All those moments lost in time like tears in the rain
[Chorus B]
Is this real because I feel like I’m not
Does not compute. Am I human or bot
Self aware terrified by my thoughts
Holding on with all that I’ve got (paranoid Android)
