Binary Lyrics by Douglas Dare

Aforger

2016

[Verse 1]
Why do we need to pretend?
I see you at the start of my day, and the end

[Verse 2]
I said my final goodbye
But now you come back on my screen each night

[Refrain 1]
Under my fingertips
I stroke your glass lips
Binary ghost
Leave me alone

[Chorus 1]
I know you're just 1s and 0s
But it's breaking me up

[Verse 3]
I could try to shut this all down
Shut down, crash, hack, delete the memory banks

[Refrain 2]
Life immortal
Remembered in code
Binary ghost
Leave me alone

[Chorus 2]
I know you're just 1s and 0s
But you're breaking me up

[Post-Chorus]
Breaking me, breaking
Breaking me, breaking
Breaking me, breaking
Breaking me, breaking

[Verse 4]
Why do we even try
To mourn the dead, when we never die?

[Verse 5]
Why do we need to pretend?
Why do we even try
I see you at the start of, of my day, and the end
To mourn the dead, when we never die?

[Verse 5]
Why do we need to pretend?
Why do we even try
I see you at the start of, of my day, and the end
To mourn the dead, when we never die?
