Lyrics

    We're in the building where they make us grow
    And I'm frightened by the liquid engineers
    Like you
    
    My Mallory heart is sure to fail
    I could crawl around the floor just like I'm real
    Like you
    
    The sound of metal I want to be you
    I could learn to be a man
    Like you
    
    Plug me in and turn me on
    Oh everything is moving
    
    I need my treatment it's tomorrow they send me
    Singing "I am an American"
    Do you?
    
    Picture this if they could make the change
    I'd love to pull the wires from the wall
    Did you?
    
    And who are you and how can I try?
    Here inside I like metal
    On you
    
    All I know is no one dies
    I'm still confusing love with need
