The Adam of Your Labours Lyrics

Picked up pieces scattered around me

Some were thrown away

Try to rebuild things as they were

But will it work today

Re-constitute the rusted

Does its function remain

Give the body time to warm up

But will I be insane

I forgot what living was

And now I'm never going to be the same

I forgot the man I am

And now I'm stuck here trying to reclaim

All the things I left behind

But, still, they exist within my mind

A walking corpse

Is who I am

Unwanted parts

Nothing in this world is perfect

And that goes for me

All the faults between the seams

Are easier to see

Is my heart still really beating

Or is it beating me

When will I be a real person

Not just this forgery

I forgot what living was

And now I'm never going to be the same

I forgot the man I am

And now I'm stuck here trying to reclaim

All the things I left behind

But, still, they exist within my mind

A walking corpse

Is who I am

Unwanted parts

See yourself from different angles

Conflicting wants are getting tangled

Who you were was being strangled

Your once-known face has become mangled

Torn apart from all the others

A spark of life will soon be smothered

Far away and running further

Freedom is just now discovered

I forgot what living was

And now I'm never going to be the same

I forgot the man I am

And now I'm stuck here trying to reclaim

All the things I left behind

But, still, they exist within my mind

A walking corpse

Is who I am

Unwanted parts

But, still, I stand
