The Becoming

I beat my machine
It's a part of me
It's inside of me
I'm stuck in this dream
It's changing me... I am becoming
The me that you know, he had some second thoughts
He's covered with scabs, he is broken and sore
The me that you know, he doesn't come around much
That part of me... Isn't here anymore.

All pain disappears
It's the nature of
Of my circuitry
Drowns out all I hear
There's no escape from this
My new consciousness
The me that you know, he used to have feelings
But the blood has stopped pumping and he is left to decay
The me that you know is now made up of wires
And even when I'm right with you I'm so far away...

I can try to get away.. But i've strapped myself in
I can try to scratch away.. The sound in my ears
I can see it killing away.. All of my bad parts
I don't want to listen.. But it's all too clear.

Hiding..
Backwards inside of me
I feel... So unafraid
Annie, hold a little tighter
I might.. Just slip away.

It won't give up, it wants me dead
Goddamn this noise inside my head.
