A folky song about the often-very-difficult quest for personal growth and progress.

LYRICS:

Have you seen my old self?
I think I must have lost her
I wonder if I cost her 
Her life?

Have you seen my second self?
She seems to grow younger
More delicate then ever
But never better

I’m an experiment
Each trial is a test
Constant re-calibration
I am recycled cells
I learn to like myself
More with each iteration

Where is my restore point?
I found an old sore point
All disjointed
My file corrupted

Where is my replacement part?
I need another new heart
The other ones beat was
Interrupted

I am recycled cells
I learn to like myself
More with each iteration
I’m an experiment
Each trial is a test
Constant re-calibration
