Extension of You

First thing I learned

I have to breathe

Secondly, I learned to eat

To chew on red meat

Clean my teeth before going to sleep

Hello, good morning

I learned to speak

Describe what I see

There is me

And there is you, who knew everything

Teach me how to sing

Teach me how to sing

Teach me how to sing

Talalatata

Covered my skin with pieces of cotton, linen

Conserve the most vulnerable part of me for me

My ribs opened up

Made room for beating hearts

Stainless steel appends to my shoulder

Pierces through my rubbery skin

Upgrades me with pair of limbs

My head opened up

Made room for deeper thoughts

Contracting muscles

Getting bigger

Under my rubbery skin

I've became what I thought was human

My structure expands

Further than you

Allow me to be

An extension of you

Then I learned there are many more delicacies

Tomatoes and cheese

I learned the good and evil

Learned your boundaries

Learned your mortality

You're out of service

Out of service

Out of service

Out of service

Ah

Ah

For the first time you failed

And I asked myself

Is there meaning at all

I know that bodies rot

But where are your self

Where are all your thoughts

I wanted to believe

That ghosts are real

That ghosts are real

There are still many things

That I want to know

Stories left untold

Does it feel good to love

To hand out your all

To hand out your all

Does it feel good to hate

To shelter oneself

To shelter oneself

Does it feel good to live

To treasure the now

To treasure the now

Does it feel good to die

To live your next life

To live your next life

Tatata tatata ta tatata ta tata

Tatata tatata

Hmmm hm hm
