My artificial heart won’t do
The things I need it to
In a science lab they created me
Gave me eyes to see and lungs to breathe
I’m not human anymore
A steel frame and fabricated brain
I’m cold to the core and I feel no pain
Will I be used for war?
My artificial heart won’t do
The things I need it to
For the longest time,
I thought that I’d be just
Fine to live my life
But no
Assimilate into society
Walk these streets of my city with these iron feet
I’ll fit in just fine but…
Can I fall in love? I’m just a machine
I was not programmed to feel this way
My mind will delete
My artificial heart won’t do
The things I need it to
For the longest time,
I thought that I’d be just
Fine to live my life
But no
The experiment was a complete success, the patient has recovered from their life threatening injuries and is now half man, and half machine. This leaves so many questions unanswered, will this being be able to find love? Feel true emotion? Connect with people? Or are they doomed to remain a cold hollow shell for the rest of their existence?
My artificial heart won’t do
The things I need it to
My artificial heart broke in two
I pushed it too hard
Now what do I do?
Feel the blood inside
Coursing through the veins that
Are keeping me alive
Is this how I die?
For the longest time
I thought that I’d be just
Fine to live my life
But no
