I Shift my weight and turn the corner
as I blindly hurtle forward.
I let momentum take control
a reaction sparks but I'm falling down.
Only to land at the water's edge
the current is strong I'm not built for this but
curiosity has me beat.
Escape is all that is rushing through my head.
I follow rockets shot into the sky.
I will no longer be confined.
So this is what it's like to dream,
an endless quest for vitality.
Push the boundaries of possibility
then give me every chance to be unique.
In this search for truth show me what it is to be alive.
They've abandoned this relic of science,
progression of mechanical mind.
I'm more than fabricated personality,
the archetype of just how high they can climb.
A slave to logic I'm aware of the odds.
I'm only metal and could never be more,
but I was told that one day I'd have dreams.
Triumph isn't so far out of reach.
So this is what it's like to dream,
an endless quest for vitality.
Push the boundaries of possibility
then give me every chance to be unique.
In this search for truth show me what it is to be alive.
So if I chase the sun will I get to see
everything that the heavens hold for me.
A forgotten dream of simulated life,
I've been observing for so long
while locked away from sight
feeding on the knowledge
obtained from
staring through the glass.
They said that I could never feel
the bitter cold of a winter's day
and that I would never know
the sharp pain of heartbreak but...
I want it all!
Give me reality.
But what is real?
Is this a fallacy?
Is superior invention the path to ascension?
I want it all!
Give me mortality.
But what is real?
To be one with humanity?
Can't silence the will to dream,
the ghost in the machine.
I want it all!
To harness the energy.
But what is real?
To witness the majesty.
I'm more than imitation,
true life is paramount.
I want it all!
It's just a matter of time.
But what is real?
Give me a sign of life.
What makes a soul complete?
I want to feel everything!
