Tell me what I am Tell me what I Down here at the bottom Underneath it all, big doubts, I've got 'em Seein' faces, place in the world got smaller Thought I had it all figured out Now all of me are fallin' We don't matter in the slightest We're just some code that's brought to life as plot devices Life is a lie, from the mouth in the sky Don't get too comfortable You don't mean nothin' and you'll never know why I'm a construct, automaton, but All I want was a little purpose, I'm nervous I'm in the game, but I'm not a player I've been created to be obliterated And left in the dark, no place When I think about my mother, did she ever have a face? Don't know how I could recover, I'm fallin', no brakes This truck's goin' over the edge, I've done all I can Just tell me what I am Please help me understand Am I a man or a command? A program, damned to their design What happens when you leave? When your eyes are not on me? Do I go on if not perceived? I can't breathe, please give me relief Just tell me what I am So tell me how you're different? The look on your face tellin' me this isn't Breakin' your brain, or there's nothing left to break How long does it take to accept That everything and everyone's fake? Hey, why ain't your face on the wall? I can't seem to recall seeing any of your friends at all You're not a plaything, you're far away Bringin' your trouble down here We were fine before you showed But now I don't know if I had existed If I didn't, would I miss it? Am I just a ghost? Not to be a host? Every characteristic chosen to assist him puttin' on a show Now I'm pulled down under the world Learning everything I shouldn't have known I can barely stand At the very least, think I deserve to ask one more question Just tell me what I am When the lights go off, will I feel it at all? Will I be erased just like I have so many times before? You say to come along Would it be so wrong to find a home in the forever? Building memories and more I can be someone My life has just begun I finally kno' (No!) Just tell me what I am (Down here at the bottom) Please help me understand (Big doubts, I've got 'em) Am I a man or a command? A program, damned to their design (Oh-oh) What happens when you leave? (What happens when you leave?) When your eyes are not on me? Do I go on if not perceived? (Oh-oh) I can't breathe, please give me relief (Ooh) Just tell me what I am Tell me what I am Tell me what I am
