about

Humans and Robots. What is real, and what is made from the constructs of your mind?

Music video: youtu.be/8z1GdrrD7PA

lyrics

[You:]
How do you do!
It's good to see you too.
How's your life and how have things been going?
I've heard a rumor
And I hope it's not true.
People tell me you've been spreading lies.

[Robot:]
But I don't know what to say
Cause no one told me
How I should say it,
And I don't know any way
to express the way I'm feeling inside

[You:]
That might be true,
But now I'm saying this to you:
Thinking for yourself is lots of work.
Because the people around you
Crowd your mind,
EGO BLOCKS THE VISION OF THE SOUL!

[Robot:]
But I don't know what to think,
Cause no one told me
How I should think it.
And I don't know why my mind is on the brink,
Please help me unlock my mind

But I don't know what to feel
Cause no one told me
How I should feel it,
And I don't know what is real and
what is made from the constructs of my mind.
