Just a Thinking Machine

Automatons with flickering screens
Perceiving a world that cannot be seen
Spinning gears that calculate dreams
I am just a thinking machine.

Rotting and rusting, simply trusting
We're as human as we seem
The truth of the matter couldn't be sadder
I am just a thinking machine.

Neurons fire like the sun
Burning until our program's done
Like a disease with no vaccine
I am just a thinking machine.
