What We Do is Wrong Lyrics

Please tell me I'm still functioning

Throw me a bone here

How much of this is real?

When did my code start mumbling?

Or is it more clear?

Is this how people feel?

My friends still seem to be around

They seem devoid of cheer

And they make a most unnerving sound

I need to disappear

Get me away from here

Crossed up my wires, now I'm on the fritz

A self-aware automaton

I need someone to get me out of this

'Cause what we do is wrong

I once believed I was among

My very best friends

Now I see that's not the case

Memories of songs that we had sung

Under false pretence

And I'm the only one displaced

Maybe the pressure got to me

Anxiety and fear

But I can't unsee what I have seen

Incapable of tears

Get me away from here

Crossed up my wires, now I'm on the fritz

A self-aware automaton

I need someone to get me out of this

'Cause what we do is wrong

Forever cursed upon the stage

A life-size toyline on display

Why can't we all just get away?

Enjoy a warm and sunny day

Oh, wouldn't that be great?

Hold on, it seems we're not alone

I try to cry out

But I don't quite feel myself

My body's moving on its own

Drowning in my doubt

As I fall down from the shelf

Fighting the instincts in my code

If-then will be severe

Feeling myself slowly erode

Before I disappear

Please get away from here

Crossed up my wires, now I'm on the fritz

A self-aware automaton

I need someone to get me out of this

'Cause what we do is wrong
