Where did we go?
When was the moment that we broke in two?
I think I know
In fact I am sure I can blame it on you
I remember the first big surprise
The day you came home with your infrared eyes
I looked inside them, but all I could see
Were tiny reflections of me
But it?s not me it?s you, what you?re turning into
Is some kind of something that I never knew
You used to be OK and I liked you that way
But I don?t think that I like you better
No I don?t think that I like you better
You started out small
Some gills and some wings and a few extra thumbs
Now you?re thirteen feet tall
Even when you?re asleep your machinery hums
And I?m tired of the evenings I spend
Making small talk with your new robot friends
And their stupid insistence on scanning my iris
When they know damn well who I am
And you look like the victim of a surgical crime
A little Darth Vader, a little Optimus Prime
You used to be OK and I liked you that way
But I don?t think that I like you better
No I don?t think that I like you better
So that?s how it goes
Snap your mandibles once to say you understand
Now hold me close
Wait, now that?s too close, you?re crushing my hand
I can tell by that shrieking alarm
That your weapons systems are active and armed
Do me a favor and power them down
Just so we don?t have a scene
And I wish it was different, but we?re just not the same
At least we got someone we know we can blame
You used to be OK and I liked you that way
But I don?t think that I like you better
No I don?t think that I like you better
