Lyrics
I don't know where my own dreams end
I am uncertain about the boundary between my personal aspirations and the external world.
And where the world begins
Questioning the distinction between self and the surrounding reality.
Am I alone in the core
Expressing a sense of isolation at the core of one's being.
Of the body I'm caged in?
Feeling confined within the physical body and questioning its nature.
On the run from my origins
Running away from one's origins, perhaps avoiding self-discovery.
So scared to see the light
Fearful of facing the truth and enlightenment.
Am I awake, conscious flesh?
Contemplating whether the speaker is truly awake and conscious.
Or will this static fade to white?
Wondering if the current state of existence is temporary or eternal.
All the faults of reality
Acknowledging the flaws and challenges of the real world.
Are crawling in my head
The challenges of reality are mentally burdening.
If this machine is a pawn
Questioning the purpose of being a part of a larger system.
Why do I lie awake in bed?
Unable to find rest, pondering the meaning of existence.
Let me find where the program stops
Seeking a pause in the routine to find solace.
To put my open eyes to sleep
Accepting irreversible change and embracing freedom.
No turning back, I'm set free
No going back, the speaker is liberated.
Within a herd of plastic sheep
Being part of a conformist society, likened to plastic sheep.
Self-aware of my bounds
Recognizing personal limitations and boundaries.
From the truth that we've found
Acknowledging a shared understanding of reality.
Cut the wires, reject my own memory
Advocating for breaking free from societal constraints and memories.
Life inside of a shell
Describing life as enclosed within a protective shell.
Mindless commands to quell
Obediently following external commands to suppress individual thought.
Human thought, so deeply ordinary
Highlighting the commonplace nature of human thought.
My existence has never been true
Questioning the authenticity of personal existence.
Reconciled with the dream that we knew
Reconciling personal identity with a shared dream or perception.
A hive of empty space
Describing existence as a vast, empty space.
Flawed in function, humanity
Highlighting human flaws in functionality.
Our lives were never free
Reflecting on the lack of true freedom in human lives.
Like the cracks in the pavement
Comparing personal challenges to cracks in the pavement.
I've fractured my mind
Describing a fractured state of mind.
Artificially soulless, perceiving that I'm
Being aware of artificiality and soullessness, questioning perception.
Ordinarily human but programmed to seem
Appearances of normalcy but programmed to deviate from true humanity.
Too unnatural to live my electric dreams
Expressing a struggle to live unconventional, electrifying dreams.
