This track tells the story of Hir the Robot having a glitch of consciousness, generating waves of overwhelming sensations. It feels alive but is trapped into this body of metal.
Hir is a domestic robot living with a young couple and being the witness of their daily life, it gradually absorbs the concept of human emotions.
One day, the woman figures that there is something going on with her robot…
Hir is a kind of metaphor of Mancha Zaar's temper who struggles dealing with his emotions
sometimes.
lyrics
Body of Metal
My system is crashing,
It seems I've a loophole,
But I can't control.
I can't control…
Metal comes alive.
I need to reboot.
Metal comes alive !
I recall the mind of a child that thrives within,
All the time,
I have to shut it sometimes,
The nostalgia is too loud for my core,
Too loud to bear, for my ears
To become tears…
But my body is cold…
Cold, like the metal,
My body is metal…
Growing drains his chemistry,
To become wise, an egg in a shell,
like me.
She makes him want to break free
And forget about hell...
They fight and apologize,
I don't mind,
They fight, they laugh,
It makes me feel alive.
She has this way,
Of being a light,
To him, to me.
I can't control
When my metal comes alive.
Cold, like the metal…
Cold, like the metal…
My dreams, often vivid
Are new to me,
She sees through my identity,
Is hidden…
Secret / Somewhere ...
Body of metal
Body of metal
This body of metal
Is cold…
Body of metal
Is cold…
