lyrics

I’m clenching my teeth when I tell you it’s okay.
I’m sick of my skin. I barely have it anyway.
With my cold metal hands, you won’t give me a chance.
I hope I’m heavy enough to break the currents beyond the sand.

Through digital eyes, reborn.
Do you know what it’s like in this form?
Better dead than a cyborg.
This isn’t me.

I crawl ‘cause I’m weak. My armor weighs me to the ground.
So close to the sea, but my battery is going down.
The chaos spins around me.
When I through myself in, you won’t understand.
But I’m ready to go. Better believe that I can.

Through digital eyes, reborn.
Do you know what it’s like in this form?
Better dead than a cyborg.
This isn’t me.

My armor has been taken, I’ve got nothing else.
You say I’m alive because I’ve got a pulse.
I really don’t think I’m stable enough
to remedy all that I’ve done to myself.
I step a bit closer to be washed away
by the tides that are finally coming my way.
The emotion is gone from the words that I say ‘cause you know…

Bullets don’t hurt me.
I can pull my enemies’ heads from their bodies.
But when I dream, I see the ocean floor.
The key to killing this cyborg.
He’ll hurt you no more.

Did you mean it when you said that my heart is strong?
Don’t wanna delete my thoughts about you.
I see straight through to your soul.
And I hate everything I see when I’m without you.
Asleep in the metal.
Could you help me turn myself around?
And please don’t go too far.
Because everyone is gone.

I can feel them, but I can’t remember them.
