Robots
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I don't know what you've been told
But I don't get out much these days
Waking young and feeling old
The days are no longer my own
To piss away the waking hours
But don't, don't, don't
Don't let them go
Don't, don't, don't, don't
Don't let them go to waste
The fire in my eye
Is fleeting now
Your robot heart is bleeding
Tried to be the robot king
And settled for a robot boy
Ring the bells that still can ring
And sing your stupid head off to
The ones who are not listening
But don't, don't, don't
Don't let them go
Don't, don't, don't, don't
Don't let them go to waste
The fire in my eye
Is fleeting now
Your robot heart is bleeding out
And I've spent half of my life
In the customer service line
Flaws in the design
A sign of the times
And that little voice
In the back of your mind
Just wants you to know
Just hopes you know
Robots need love too
They want to be loved by you
They want to be loved by you
They want to be loved by
Robots need love too
They want to be loved by you
They want to be loved by you
They want to be loved by
Robots need love too
They want to be loved by you
They want to be loved by you
They want to be loved by
Robots need love too
They want to be loved by you
They want to be loved by you
They want to be loved by you
