Song lyrics

[Verse 1:]
In my love
Every heart is beating.
I'm all love,
Can't you feel me feeling?
Take my hand,
Cold like a junkie,
I'm an ice cold man,
I'm an ice cold man.
Why am I crying for you?

[Chorus:]
All this love I felt for you
Has gone away to another place.
It's a digital life.
I put my faith in a digital world,
Where they've given me
Eyes without a face.
I stare at the moon on silver nights,
Remind myself I am someone,
My soul is null and void tonight,
I'm automaton.

[Verse 2:]
I'm so tough,
Can't you see me running?
See, I can touch,
Can you feel me coming?
I see the world
In claws of freedom.
These metal eyes, they can't disguise
The fact that I
Need something to believe in,
But they're not crying for you.

[Chorus:]
I said goodbye to the world I knew
And took off into inner space.
It's a digital life.
Weren't you the ones who promised me
A very different place?
I power up, get my program set,
And turn my head toward the sun.
Inside I know, I'm null and void,
I'm automaton.

[Bridge:]
Automaton,
Automaton,
Automaton,
Automaton.
Hey, you got me down underground,
Getting holed up in my cyber lounge
As if I had time to break that down.
Automaton.
Whatever you can do I can override it,
Got a million ways to synthesize it,
Digital android, I can fight it,
Fight it out.
Automaton. It's a digital life.
Automaton. Digital life.
Automaton. A digital life.
Automaton.

[Chorus:]
Feel like a man, who fell to earth,
But this is not where I belong,
They rule my life from a metal box
That's windowless.
And I wonder where it all goes wrong,
Maybe this dream will stay alive,
But can the madness be undone?
Am I the new intelligence?

[Outro:]
I'm automaton,
I'm automaton,
I'm automaton,
I'm automaton,
I'm automaton,
I'm automaton,
I'm automaton.
It's a digital life,
It's a digital life.
You know I need something I can hold onto, hold onto.
You were all I knew,
I'm automaton.
I need something,
I can hold onto, hold onto.
This was all I knew.
