[Intro]
Gmaj7 F#m D F#m
Gmaj7 F#m Bm A
[Verse 1]
Gmaj7 F#mPower on
D F#m GFace the blinding skyline in artificial dawn
F#m Bm7 F#mWithdrawn in simple lexicon
Gmaj7 F#m Dm F#mNothing left but old routines of all you gave to me
Gmaj7 F#m Bm F#mLay bound by programming antique
[Pre-Chorus]
G Gmaj7 Bm7So lonesome, I sleep
Gmaj7 G Bm7 F#mAnd like clockwork, memories repeat in reason
Gmaj7 BmEtiquette in normalcy with only ghosts to see
Gmaj7 BmYet here I am
[Chorus]
F#mGmaj7 A
Always waiting
Bm F#mOn something I can try to be
Gmaj7 AMasquerading
Bm7 Cmaj7I'm only what you make of me
Gmaj7 AIs that the tempo I'm meant to follow?
Bm F#m Em7With heavy hearts, we play our parts and fall
N.C.
Is that human after all?
Gmaj7 F#m D F#m
Gmaj7 F#m Bm A
[Verse 2]
Gmaj7 F#mIs it wrong?
D F#m Gmaj7Every path I follow leads to the same old dawn
F#m Bm F#mSo long to binary facade
Gmaj7 F#mFleeting moments dying 'nеath the starway
DRecorded, sprawlеd across the reels of tape
Em AI read all the notes in sequence
Bm ABut I can't make out the meaning, oh
[Pre-Chorus]
Gmj7 Bm
So lonesome, I weep
Gmaj7 G Bm AAnd like clockwork, elegies repeat in season
Gmaj7 G BmEtiquette in circuitry, connection obsolete
Gmaj7 Bm AmYet here I weather
N.C.
Always
[Chorus]
Gmaj7 AWaiting
Bm F#mOn something I can try to be
Gmaj7 AMasquerading
Bm7 Cmaj7As more than just a fantasy
Gmaj7 AIs that the fate that I emulate?
Bm F#m Em7Oh, to play pretend until the ending calls
N.C.
Is that human after all?
[Interlude]
Gmaj7 F#m"May I ask something?"
D"Go ahead!"
F#m Gmaj7"Why are you always looking at the stars?"
F#m"Why always looking at the stars?
Bm AWell, I like them, I guess."
Gmaj7 F#m"May I ask something else?"
D"You may."
F# Em"Why Do you like the stars?"
A"Haha~
Bm AThat's a good question!"
[Bridge]
Gm AEvery night as the stars align
Bm F#mMy weary parts, my rusty heart
Gmaj7 ARecall to mind of your hand in mine
Gm F#And the words I often heard said
Gmaj7 A"If God demands it, then we can't help it"
Bm F#mA cycle born through pain and scorn
Gmaj7 AReaper, sir, don't you take me yet
Gmaj7 F#While these thoughts fill my head
Gmaj7 ACould I try?
Bm F#mCould changing leave me gratified?
Gmaj7 A Bm Cmaj7Even if it's not what you wanted for my afterlife
Em F#m G AIf I turned out like you, oh, would you be mad?
Em F#m Gmaj7 AIs disapproval what it takes to live again?

[Chorus]
N.C.
Always waiting
N.C.
On something I can try to be
G#maj7 A#Masquerading
Cm C#As something more than anything
G#maj7 A#Is that the me that I'm meant to be?
Cm Gm FmOh, a paragon, my back upon the wall
A# G#maj7 A#Is it human to be waiting?
Cm GmFor something you can settle on
G#maj7 A# Cm C#Never changing, a dutiful automaton
G#maj7 A#If that's the tempo I'm meant to follow
Cm Gm FmI'll lose the beat to be complete and fall
N.C.
I'll be human after all
