"Uncanny Valley" lyrics

"Uncanny Valley"

Uncanny valley
Won't you tell me if I belong
Tell me if you can
Read the writing on the wall

Why does it say
That we're all just the same?
Have we known it all along
And just looked the other way?

Complete the story
Imagining every end
Counting the reasons
We forget that it all depends

On the flowers fading
With the season
And the waves breaking
Oh, the feeling
Of an open horizon
Complete silence
Where you can run into you
Or the mind dreaming of a perfect freedom
Not only while you're sleeping

It's a zero sum game
By the wrong name
Writing letters to the past
As if you were the same

But I've been changed
Now I know it was
A real deficit of belief and of trust
I want to show you better
I know I can show you better
I want to show you better
This time
