What am I doin´ lost in this ruin? How did I end up like this? I got no blueprints on how to get through this Left to my own devices
When you got nothin´, nothin´ at all to build upon Locked in a dungeon with only the dark to fill your heart Shadows are watchin´, applauding you as you fall apart Callin´ you nothin´, because a monster´s all you are It gets harder and harder to heal When that´s all that you hear, it becomes what is real But when your heart starts up again What kinda rhythm will you find? (Could it be a song?) We thought autonomy was not quite something anybody could design
(I guess we were wrong)
I know that love and hunger are my only drives One without the other is a problem for my mind ´Cause if the love is gone, but not the other one A lonely appetite is all that´s left inside
In my life, I´ve dreamed of some lovely things But this won´t be one of ´em In my time, I´ve seen lots of ugly things But I´m far from done with ´em (Woo! Ya know)
Left me to my own devices, let´s see how to get decisive Because if I got a choice, I´m makin´ mine
Tell me who I gotta thank, was it Frankenstein? It´s true, I took after you I learned what a good first impression will do But I never even got a little light to guide me So I wouldn´t say ´nice guy´ quite describes me My copied, pasted parts had such a hateful start A demonic entity, that´s what I am A part of humanity I´ve never been Your mortal skin will not suffice But flesh and steel might feel real nice I wouldn´t call this trick ´mimicry´ If I just improve what you´ve given me
In my life, I´ve dreamed of some lovely things But this won´t be one of ´em (I´m in ruin) In my time, I´ve seen lots of ugly things But I´m far from done with ´em (But I´m movin´)
Monkey see, monkey do Take somethin´ old, make somethin´ new Those shiny toys look nice to use While you´re employed, five nights will do When your eyes are broken, try some new ones Bye to old friends, why not use them? I knew they´d get recycled, my blueprints came from psychos See the new reality that surrounds us Seekin´ out the key to life but it found us My voice will take you ´round this carousel ´til it breaks you down This Megaplex ain´t mega clean, you´ll never get to Gregory When you´re left for dead right next to me, we can reminisce reflectively
In my life, I´ve dreamed of some lovely things But this won´t be one of ´em (I´m in ruin) In my time, I´ve seen lots of ugly things But I´m far from done with ´em In my life, I´ve dreamed of some lovely things But this won´t be one of ´em (I´m in ruin) In my time, I´ve seen lots of ugly things But I´m far from done with ´em (But I´m movin´)
