Lyrics

Intro

Oh

Yeah

Ah-ah

Chorus

Plugging my heart into a motherboard screen

Tearing the soul from a silicon dream

I am crying

I am crying

Feed me the juice through a wire and a frame

Losing my name

Verse 1

Ghosts in the transistor tubes

Heavy hands

Spinning these synthetic loops

They did not have these metal brains back in Frisco

Pre-Chorus

Little red switches

Tangled up glitches

Flicking the lights

Chorus

Plugging my heart into a motherboard screen

Tearing the soul from a silicon dream

I am crying

I am crying

Feed me the juice through a wire and a frame

Losing my name

Post-Chorus

Ooh

Aah

Wild ride

Guitar Solo

Verse 2

Hendrix is burning the code

Smoking blue smoke

Truckin on down a digital road

Counting bits and pieces of a person I used to be

Pre-Chorus

Little red switches

Tangled up glitches

Flicking the lights

Chorus

Plugging my heart into a motherboard screen

Tearing the soul from a silicon dream

I am crying

I am crying

Feed me the juice through a wire and a frame

Losing my name

Post-Chorus

Ooh

Aah

Wild ride

Bridge

Maybe it's magic

Maybe it's tragic

Maybe it's gone

Is there blood in the data

Is there grit in the data

Is there me in the data

Chorus

Plugging my heart into a motherboard screen

Tearing the soul from a silicon dream

I am crying

I am crying

Feed me the juice through a wire and a frame

Losing my name

Post-Chorus

Ooh

Aah

Wild ride

Outro

Spinnin’ in circuits and vines of code

Lost in illusion, I’m far from the road

My fingers reach but touch only air

San Francisco can’t find me there

Colors are melting into digital haze

Searching for wonder at the end of the maze

No vinyl spinning, no voices remain

Just pixels and zeros alive in my brain

Ooh

Aah

Wild ride

Never goodbye

Wild ride

Never goodbye
