I'm Not A Machine Lyrics

Think there's an error in my code

I was programmed to be the chosen one

Did all that I was told

Marched into every test and trial with guns blazing

I gave them my best

So how'd I let them down

They say I'm not worth saving

I guess it's over now

But you say

I'm not a machine

Does that make you think any less of me

I doubt who I'm supposed to be

Would you trade me in if you could see

My instability and just how deep it goes

I'm no longer the new prototype

But I'm the one you chose

I didn't function in the way that they intended

But I tried

They had made promises to everyone

That I would change the tide

But I'm not perfect

Tried to surface but I nearly drowned

They'll find the next model with full throttle

And shut me down

But you say

I'm not a machine

Does that make you think any less of me

I doubt who I'm supposed to be

Would you trade me in if you could see

My instability and just how deep it goes

I'm no longer the new prototype

But I'm the one you chose

You say it's alright to still be figuring out who I am

You say I'm not worthless just because life doesn't go to plan

Those who build you up and leave you when you falter aren't worth your time

It's okay to deviate from the initial path of mine

Because I'm not a machine

And changing course won't make you think less of me

I doubt who I'm supposed to be

But you won't trade me in although you see

My instability and just how deep it goes

I'm no longer the new prototype

But I'm the one you chose

I'm not a machine

And changing course won't make you think less of me

I doubt who I'm supposed to be (I'm not a machine)
