  • Lyrics:
    When I was poor and lonely
    they give me to her floor,
    cause you're the only.
    I was tired of resting,
    but I'm not even afraid,
    cause you're the only.
    God was in me and I'm in virtual reality,
    I'm tired of living.
    They come anywhere here,
    anywhere in my head,
    cause I'm tired of thinking.
    I never meant to love these machines
    but they obey my commands adeptly.
    I will never ever die,
    In their circuits I can survive.
    Can you hear me?
    I'm tired of living
    Ooohhhhhhh!
    Electric love screens
    have tempted me to jack it in,
    living lightly.
    They come anywhere here,
    anywhere in my head,
    I'm tired of thinking.
    I never meant to love these machines
    but they obey my commands adeptly.
    I will never ever die,
    in their circuits I can survive.
    Can you hear me?
    I'm tired of living.
    Ooooooohhhhhhh!
    Thanks to Jackle9 and mkliko for the lyircs :)

      I also thought like you that how much can a song possibly change? but then my band started working with a musical producer and when I brought songs i wrote sometimes he told me that the song needs something else. We changed choruses, melodies, harmonies, etc. And songs came out totally different, but in a good way cause we added some kickass stuff that made the songs much better.

    • @FreddieFirth
      @FreddieFirth 7 років тому +21

      "A big part of it is growing as a writer and realizing what's more pleasing to other ears, and not just yours", I think a true artist should only try to please themselves and should - in the instance of a musician - only write songs they personally like, just for the sake of their own sanity. In the end, all you know for certain is whether or not you like what you've done, and prioritizing other people will just make you feel unfulfilled and untrue to yourself.

    • @FreddieFirth
      @FreddieFirth 7 років тому +13

      I'd argue a music producer's job is to produce the band's songs, not to change the fundamental songwriting. I wouldn't wanna work with a producer like that.

      @Atlas65 8 років тому +10

      I have actually heard that plug in baby is a metaphore for his guitar (as an escape from everything, like he says "crucifies my enemies".) And I bet the verse in plug in baby is about a girl "I exposed your lies baby, the underneath is no big surprise.... cleansing everything, to forget your love" Do you still think that he is singing about technology ...?

    • @eqbrim
      @eqbrim 7 років тому +1

      I believe hypochondriac music was first and they were told it didn't fit the theme so Hyper Music was made to fit. So they made a "happier?" version of Hypochondriac instead of a sad version of Hyper Music. I could be very wrong tho

    • @zozo-productions7817
      @zozo-productions7817 7 років тому

      it's already in a minor key so you couldn't simply do a key change to make it sad. You could maybe transpose it to natural minor instead of harmonic minor, but other than that there's not an easy way to make it sad. Maybe slow the tempo?

    Matt has always implied in interviews that he his an agnostic/atheist. That is he believes that there might be a supernatural power but cannot say what form it takes.
    The line "God was in me" in this demo does not refer to the Chrisitan God if that's what you're thinking.
