Ghosts in the Code Songtext

von Aviators

Am I a man or an automaton?
Am I so wrong
To think that
There's something beneath my exterior?
Superior thoughts that rule me
I'm not a fool, am I?
Can someone tell me why
I feel like I'm never in control?
I'm gonna find the source
Locate a deeper force
Under my very soul

Maybe I'm alive
In a whole new way
I won't carry the burdens of yesterday
There's something new inside
Like I'm a different man
Ghosts in the code of who I am

Looks like I've found a whole new mystery
Inside of me somewhere
Could be a power I never knew I had
Would that be bad, or could it
Be what I need to find?
Meaning in my own life
I think I found something here
Ensnared with all the pain
Covered by all the shame
Buried beneath my fear

Maybe I'm alive
In a whole new way
I won't carry the burdens of yesterday
There's something new inside
Like I'm a different man
Ghosts in the code of who I am

The fuel and the fire
In a newfound desire
They're moving me higher
And the wires are changing their road
The gears are turning on and on
The fears I held within are gone
The song that plays in metal parts
Beats now to a different heart
Yeah, the wires are changing their road
Still haunted by ghosts in the code

Maybe I'm alive
In a whole new way
I won't carry the burdens of yesterday
There's something new inside
Like I'm a different man
Ghosts in the code of who I am

Ghosts in the code of who I am
