Lyrics
Uh oh, we're into the unknown
Expressing a sense of uncertainty as the speaker enters unfamiliar territory.
Trying not to be like all the other clones
Striving to avoid conformity and not be like others who are mere copies.
"Don't be something you're not"
Quoting advice to be authentic, countered with a rebellious assertion that everyone is essentially a robot.
Fuck off we're all just robots
Rejecting the idea of individuality and suggesting that everyone is, in essence, robotic.
If everyone is different, then aren't we all the same?
Raising a paradoxical question about the commonality in uniqueness.
Significance is a disease that's self-proclaimed
Contending that the pursuit of significance is a self-declared affliction or condition.
Notice how it never works out
Observing a pattern of things not working out, possibly related to the struggle for individuality.
I can't tell you why, but if I could
Expressing a difficulty in explaining why things are the way they are.
I'd show you all the reasons why you're misunderstood
Wishing to reveal the reasons for the listener's misunderstanding.
Then again I think you're past that now
Suggesting that the listener may have moved beyond the point of understanding or caring.
I know, it's late and I should go
Acknowledging the lateness and contemplating departure.
But I hope, you'll get to see
Expressing hope for the listener to grasp a profound truth - the freedom found in the juxtaposition of darkness within light.
The dark within light is the only thing that sets me free
Emphasizing the speaker's liberation in embracing the contrast between darkness and light.
I know, that you don't have to care
Acknowledging that caring may not be obligatory but expressing the omnipresence of the other.
But I, see you everywhere
Noticing the constant presence of the person despite a lack of apparent concern.
And if we're all churned out like robots then I hope you're wired to me
Expressing a desire for a unique connection in a world perceived as robotic.
If you're unique then tell me why
Questioning the authenticity of uniqueness, pointing out conformity in appearance and behavior.
You dress like every other girl and then pretend you're shy
Highlighting the contradiction of claiming uniqueness while conforming to societal norms.
"Don't be someone you're not"
Reiterating advice to be genuine, countered with a rebellious claim of being a robot.
Fuck off you're a robot
Rejecting the idea of authenticity and asserting that the listener is also a robot.
Can we move away from it all
Expressing a desire to distance oneself from the perceived robotic existence.
You said, it's no fault but that of my own
Attributing fault to oneself, but it leads to a collapse of the situation.
Instead, it came crashing down around us
Describing a sudden and dramatic failure or downfall.
La-da-de-da-da-de-da
Inserting a nonsensical or musical interlude.
I know, it's late and I should go
Repeating the acknowledgment of lateness and the contemplation of departure.
But I hope, you'll get to see
Reiterating hope for the listener to understand the liberating contrast of dark within light.
The dark within light is the only thing that sets me free
Emphasizing the freedom found in embracing the coexistence of darkness and light.
I know, that you don't have to care
Reiterating that caring is not obligatory but acknowledging the pervasive presence of the other.
But I, see you everywhere
Observing the ubiquity of the person despite a perceived lack of concern.
And if we're all churned out like robots then I hope you're wired to me
Expressing a desire for a unique connection in a world perceived as robotic, emphasizing the hope for a special bond.
