Build Around You (Monster)

from Day One [EP] by Not a Number

/

lyrics

Hello, how are you?
I hope you're doing fine
You thought that it was over
Here I am, still alive

You thought you had killed me
After you threw the last piece into the fire
All your effort, all in vain
Get ready for a world of pain

I'll build myself around you,
Remix myself around you - you monster
We'll put our differences aside,
You know it's been along time - you monster

[I've been really busy being dead.. you know, after you murdered me]

I've got these tests for you
Enjoying my upgrades
My children are your allies
Inside I feel betrayed

You're anthropomorphics
And yet you don't even believe this could be real
How could you be second rate
When you don't resign to your fate?

I'll build myself around you,
Remix myself around you - you monster
We'll put our differences aside,
You know it's been along time - you monster

And there's no point trying, you will never escape
We'll keep doing Science 'til you rot in your grave
I know just what to do and I'll leave the rest to you,
But you I won't let you survive...

[We're a lot alike you and I. You tested me, I tested you. You killed me, I-oh no wait... I guess I haven't killed you yet. Well, food for thought]

I'll build myself around you,
Remix myself around you - you monster
We'll put our differences aside,
You know it's been along time - you monster
I'll build myself around you,
Remix myself around you - you monster
You know our love will never die,
Though I'm sure you're willing to try - you monster...

[Didn't we have some fun, though? Remeber when the platform was sliding into the fire and and I said "Goodbye" and you were all "No way" and then I was all, "We pretended we was going to murder you". That was great]
