Automaton |
| He arrived on the scene |
| With no past and no future |
| He seemed to know your dreams |
| Replace tears with laughter |
| Street corner whispers |
| Would mention his name |
| Selfish? |
| Benevolent? |
| What was his game |
| Some say he’s perfect |
| Some say a spy |
| A hidden power |
| They all wonder why |
| The rumors mounted |
| But still no fact? |
| I need to find out |
| Some say perfect hidden power |
| We all wonder why |
| Questions unanswered |
| Suspicion alerted |
| I went round to his place |
| If felt quite deserted |
| I climbed the stairs to where |
| His body lay without motion |
| No spirit lives in there |
| The cord had been broken |
| His skin was reptile |
| No life in there |
| Not young not old |
| A long hollow glare |
| His breath had stopped |
| No hearts beat there |
| Is this a man |
| Should I believe hidden power |
| They all wondered why |
| My attention was caught |
| By a sound from the door |
| Panic gripped the mind |
| What lay in store |
| A being stared at me |
| Benevolent, not cold |
| Automaton — He is controlled |
| His skin was reptile… |
| Automaton — No life in there |
| No past and no future |
| Is this a man |
| Automaton — No life in there |
| No past and not future |
| Is this a man |
