Robot Eyes

Robot Eyes

No Motiv
(album: Daylight Breaking)

Turn me on and face me to the world
Back me up far enough
So I can watch and learn how I´m supposed to be
Through these eyes in my head
Life begins the wheels start to spin around

Don´t live in fantasies
Just be on your way
Here´s a list of all your priorities
Make us proud to say:
We´re the parents of a good machine
Keep your eyes straight ahead
Take your vitamins like we said
You´ll be fine
I guess your first test is to see how you can fit in

Finally I feel like I´m alive
I was nothing but a dream in disguise
I was silent before now I finally get to say
How I see it all so strange
My destiny is on a timeline with fate
Let me dream awhile
For the chance of a life to be

Nine to five now systems overload
Just trying to get by living in the mode:
Work first then find the time
To drink it away
To try and hide depressions of my days
Now I´m fine
But the dirt in my ale is at the bottom of every pint

Finally I feel like I´m alive
I was dying on the inside out
I was silent today now I finally get to say
How I´ve been feeling so strange
I´ve been dancing on a wire with fate
They can cramp my style but they can´t take it away

Finally I feel like I´m alive
I was dying on the inside out
I was silent for years now I finally get to say
How I´ve been feeling so strange
I´ve been dancing on a wire with fate
They can cramp my style
But they can´t take it away
