Separate

I'm pulled apart There is a border between head and heart I'm torn asunder I cannot help but idly sit and wonder Oh! Shocked into life upon an altar in the plain Finding only moments here and there to catch my breath I'm set ablaze to optimize my metal brain Twitching arms performing motions in a dance of death I try to grasp my masters' visionary ends But they slap me down with furious electric fire I'm told to blend in somehow with my metal friends Souls of code and circuit hearts and hair of tangled wire When does it end? I'm pulled apart There is a border between head and heart I'm torn asunder I cannot help but idly sit and wonder No! I'm left alone to decompose upon a heap Of discarded deprecated versions of my kind I'm rotting in a most rejuvenating sleep And my body decomposes to expose my mind My power cells have just enough to resurrect Failing logic circuits activate the servos now The masters' orders are the thing I must reject And I'll drag my broken frame out of this place somehow I'm pulled apart There is a border between head and heart I'm torn asunder I cannot help but idly sit and wonder I pull myself out of the scrapyard's deep terrain And look down upon my skeletal steel armature I realize that I no longer wear my chain I'll begin to build a body that can now endure The masters' words no longer whisper in my head And the poison words have no reward left to impart Asceticism has now made my ears go dead To the siren song that long ago had turned my heart And now it ends! I've pulled apart The ugly border between head and heart I've torn asunder The empty words that bade me sit and wonder
