[Chorus]
G D Em I want, I want to be a machine Bm A D And I want to be shining, chrome, and clean G Em There's something, something, some— Bm D There's something wrong with me, oh no G D Em I want, I can change my CPU Bm Am D 'Cause I am scared I'll be the same to you G Em There's something, something, some— Bm There's something wrong with me N.C. Bm C G Bm Em G Bm C Bm And now it's back to square one (O-o—)
[Verse 1]
Bm C Feel another attack, a reaction impacting Cm Every time I start a brand new track Bm A brand new plaque, a brand new stack Em If I can hack it without getting distracted G And breaking a nеw contract Bm I'm getting limited by flesh and blood C Bm Dopaminе receptor needs a fresh flood of the chemicals C Serotonin feeling so ephemeral in general malaise Bm I'm stuck wasting several days C Bm Waiting for a burst of inspiration, instigation of a more productive phase C Organic brain in a panic, clash, I gotta go fast like Sanic Bm Double the time it takes, double the bad mistakes C Double the monthly breakdown, the shakedown, the trouble with self-doubt Bm Em I'm feeling sick of confusion, give in to the robotic focus D And out with the human
[Chorus]
G D Em I want, I want to be a machine Bm A D And I want to be shining, chrome, and clean G Em There's something, something, some— Bm D There's something wrong with me, oh no G D Em I want, I can change my CPU Bm Am D 'Cause I am scared I'll be the same to you G Em There's something, something, some— Bm There's something wrong with me N.C. Bm And now it's back to square one
[Verse 2]
Bm Feel the pulse like the rhythm that's breakin' C Maybe it's the pills that I've been takin' Bm But I feel overclocked, overworked C D Over and over, too hot, I got to stop Bm Turn the plan on, turn the fan on C Bm Melting from the inside, trying to stand on fire Bm Downed wires, it's got a virus C Thought it was the new me, back to the old trip Bm Heart goes boom, trapped in a padded room C Bm A womb for powerless flowers who can't bloom C Don't assume from afar that you can diagnose a ghost C Just from looking at the scars Bm Stars in your eyes I can tell C But you're living in denial, try out living in hell Bm You'll be sick of confusion, start the infusion
N.C.
Robotic is better than human
[Chorus]
G D Em I want, I want to be a machine Bm A D And I want to be shining, chrome, and clean G Em There's something, something, some— Bm D There's something wrong with me, oh no G D Em I want, I can change my CPU Bm Am D 'Cause I am scared I'll be the same to you G Em There's something, something, some— Bm There's something wrong with me D G And now it's back to square one
[Outro]
Em I want, I want, I want, I want Bm D I want, I want, I want, I want G Em I want, I want, I want, I want Bm D I want, I want to be a machine Em I want, I want, I want, I want Bm D I want, I want, I want, I want G Em I want, I want, I want, I want Bm I want, I want to be a machine
