Mechanical Lyrics - Lauren Hoffman

Heartbeat that's lost in the creaking of steel 

Teaching and training yourself not to feel 

Here is what I see 

Human turning into machine 

And you're safe in those places where no-one can go 

Locked-up and shuttered in it's total control 

And I know how it feels 

'Cause I lived there for years 

But you try and you'll see 

It's beautiful to be free 

I wasn't born with a metal breast plate 

You grow your protection and you learn how to hate 

And I'm calling the bluff 

I know you better 

You arent so tough 

Are you inanimate 

Do you rely 

On manipulation 

So you'll look alive 

Are you automatic 

What turns you on 

Buttons and switches 

Or lovers and songs 

Lover, I've been wasting my time 

Riddling, puzzling, searching your eyes 

When all I can see 

It's turbines and pistons where a man used to be 

Am I just not getting it 

Is this evolution 

A mechanical revolution 

Are you dictating your final solution 

A mechanical revolution 

Am I just not getting it 

Is this evolution 

A mechanical revolution 

Are you dictating your final solution 

A mechanical revolution
