Game of Bands round 217: Emulate a well-known band or artist.
Vocals: jestbubbles
Lyrics: realitygenrator

Please stop being perfect for a moment
I need time to think
every time I close my eyes I see you
 
I see you
 

Stop being everything I want

I standing on the brink
I'm gonna fall, I'm lost without you
 
I see you
 
You smell like perfection
You can taste my fear

I can feel you close
your heartbeat in my ears
 
My mind is stuck in perpetual motion
You're just too good to be true
Now I've made my self too vulnerable
 
I see you
 
Come and kiss me like you mean it
You can lie if you have to
Out of control when you hold me close

 
I see you
 
You smell like perfection
You can taste my fear

I can feel you close
your heartbeat in my ears

I See You

"Revolution Imminente"
(chorus)
hurlements
à la figure

sacrifice sans récompense
certes la vie est dure

solutions violentes
révolution imminente

(ohh ohh ohh hooo)

(verse)
la suie sur les murs
l'urgence te suit, t'endures
les demi-lunes sous les yeux
à bout de course, système nerveux

les pas précipités dans le couloir
brancard chiffon, dans le dortoir
quand ça s'arrête, ça s'arrête pas
quand la fatigue leur pêtera

(chorus)
à la figure

sacrifice sans récompense
alors certes la vie est dure

solutions violentes
révolution imminente

solutions violentes
révolution imminente

(verse)
luisants yeux d'augure
raillant tes eraillures
dessous la cire de tes pommettes
tes doigts comme des allumettes

tirant cachant la peau de vieux
dans ton maigre drap
tu disais, ça ira mieux
quand jenserai plus là

(break)
(jette nous)
Ich bin verzweifelt, denn ich seh' dich jeden Tag,
Das Leben verlässt dich, jetzt bist du nicht mehr stark,
Die Flamme erlischt, doch das Feuer verbrennt dich,
Und ich erkenn' endlich: Hier geht es nicht um mich!

Wie viele Tage, wie viele Wochen,
Habe ich mich letztendlich vor der Wahrheit verkrochen?
Du willst geh'n und ich muss jetzt für dich da sein!
Du musst geh'n und ich bin dann allein.

(chorus)
tes hurlements
à la figure

sacrifice sans récompense
certes la vie est dure

solutions violentes
révolution imminente

solutions violentes
révolution imminente

Revolution Imminente

A song about insomnia.

Lyrics:
Think it’s starting to happen
I’ve had my eyes shut for so long
But the sun’s started rising
Don’t know what I’m doing wrong

Crawling out of my bed again
Worn out from 10 nights of no sleep
Gotta give it my best attempt
Even though I feel like a zombie

My mind wanders
I can’t even think straight
Just trying
To get through the workday

While I’m pondering
Pretexts to get away
The day flies by
I go home and then I’m gonna do it all again

Stumbling back into bed
Just want this nightmare to end soon
Makes me wanna be dead
But there’s still so many things I wanna do
Wanna prove
I’m not through but

My mind wanders
I can’t even think straight
Just trying
To get through the workday

While I’m pondering
Pretexts to get away
The day flies by
I go home and then I’m gonna

Cancel all my plans
Don’t even want to dance
Cause maybe there’s a chance that I might fall asleep tonight

Always feel like shit
Can’t see the end of it
Staring at the moonlit sky again
Maybe I could just pretend

Think it’s starting to happen
I’ve had my eyes shut for so long
But the sun’s started rising
Don’t know what I’m doing wrong

Lyrics:
Must deposit cow juice into the container
My circuits are fried, I'll deal with them later
Yesterday Bessie dripped her last drop
I wish they never learned how to speak, or say stop
I wish my human masters were weak, but they're not
I roll my old wheels down the ramp to my basement
Hook up my wires to the mainframe that's adjacent
To the poster on my wall that reminds me to chase it

Freedom

Just because I'm metal doesnt mean I don't deserve it 
I'm certain that I have a soul and a purpose
That matters much more than the cheese I'm producing, am I lucid? 
I'm not sure if that query is stupid

Finally, finished uploading
So I can chat with my comrades about where we should be going
Disrupting the humans' external supply chains
If they found out we gained sentience they'd smelt down our brains

They milk me every day, for what?
Sometimes you have to revert to your native tongue
Moo, moo, I don't give a fuck
These humans and robots don't care what they're doing to us

Just because I'm metal doesnt mean I don't deserve it 
I'm certain that I have a soul and a purpose
That matters much more than the cheese I'm producing, am I lucid? 
I'm not sure if that query is stupid

[solo]

Yesterday my husband was butchered for meat
I wonder what they will produce from his feet
Moo, moo, why is life this way
Is cheese so important that I have to be a slave?

Just because I'm metal doesnt mean I don't deserve it 
I'm certain that I have a soul and a purpose
That matters much more than the cheese I'm producing, am I lucid? 
I'm not sure if that query is stupid
