[Verse 1]
Are we human?
Are we programmed beyond our control?
You wanna find out?
Pay attention, the battery's low
Are you ready?
[Verse 2]
Are we human?
A copy of skin and bone
You wanna find out?
Then rip your heart out to see if it glows
Are you ready?
[Chorus]
We’re here for a moment then buried below
Afraid to be human, scared that we'll get too close
So we shut down the airwaves
Yeah, we shut down the airwaves
[Verse 3]
Wipe the code
Erase all the memories and lose your soul
Your soul
[Chorus]
We're here for a moment then buried below
Afraid to be human, scared that we’ll get too close
So we shut down the airwaves
Yeah, we shut down the airwaves
[Bridge]
Float away, open wide
Unafraid, with open eyes
Float away, come alive
On our way to sudden sky (Sudden sky)
Sudden sky (Sudden sky)
It's time to expose what was hidden
Underneath the surface
My existence was part of the delusion
Yeah, part of the delusion
[Outro]
I'm here for a moment
I'm here for a moment
I'm here for a moment, then buried below
I wanna be human, decoding the world I've known
Now I run through the airwaves
Now I run through the airwaves
