The Robotic American Dream

Wires in my veins, steel in my spine Take a look into my fractured mind, go We woke to a world stitched with code and blood A half-life torn from the mind and love I'm part of the hate that people say The machines bring me decay The allies are told, it's humans that control Both sides screaming, both sides blind Both sides screaming, both sides blind I see the truth in both designs It's way too late, we've sealed our fate But both burn bridges they can't recreate Half hated, half loved, I'm in between Half created, half blood, not what it seems Half of me human, half machine I'm living the Robot American Dream But they think I'm the nightmare There is no salvation There is no relief A divided nation Full of disbelief I can't choose a side, I'm in the middle Why is this even a question? This isn't a riddle I propel into the future and now this war is civil Why do I worry? I shouldn't care, not even a little Not even a little Not even a little Because I'm half hated, half loved, I'm in between Half created, half blood, not what it seems Half of me human, half machine I'm living the Robotic American Dream But they think I'm the nightmare Nightmare Nightmare, -ightmare Do I choose the warmth of flesh, or the clarity of steel What is love? What is hate? What of this war is even real I lay down to rest, but no longer need sleep Just pull the plug, unplug until my update is complete Half hated half loved, I'm in between Half created, half blood, not what it seems Half of me human, half machine I'm living the Robotic American dream But they think I'm the nightmare Wires in my veins, steel in my spine Gotta end this war before I lose my mind
