Lyrics
Been trying to move on
Been black and blue Trying to turn the old Into something new You found somebody I found someone too She got everything I need
Yeah but she's not you
>
I locked my love into the ground
Hoped it never could be found Body slowly shutting down
And now I am...
>
I'm still alive but I can't feel
I got stuff inside but it's not real They say I'm fine but I feel synthetic Nothing human left in me I'm just a machine full of moving parts I got emptiness where I used to have a heart I'm still breathing but I'm synthetic Nothing human left in me
Nothing human about me
>
No emotion
Just autotune Left who I was back there with you Maybe I died And I kept movin'
In a body made of plastic and glue
>
I locked my love into the ground
Hoped it never could be found Body slowly shutting down
And now I am...
>
I'm still alive but I can't feel
I got stuff inside but it's not real They say I'm fine but I feel synthetic Nothing human left in me I'm just a machine full of moving parts I got emptiness where I used to have a heart I'm still breathing but I'm synthetic Nothing human left in me
Nothing human about me
