Martha Tilston – Artificial lyrics

I turn awake
I'm just sleep rising
I put on my clothes
Sleep gliding
Onto the bus
Sleep riding to work again
To work again

Swipe in the door
Sleep lifting
Up to my floor
Sleep drifting
A number twenty-four
White coffee with a sweetener
A sweetener.

This artificial me
I'd like to show you what I really could be
I'd like to run across the office tables
Singing "No, you won't hurt me
No, no, you won't hurt me
No, no, you won't hurt me
No, no, you won't hurt me
And I'll keep a -running 'til I reach the sea"

I switch on my machine
Sleep typing
I answer the phone
Sleep hyping
Am I alone?
I don't really know what I'm selling
I'm selling

And the boss wants a word
I've been daydreaming
The boss wants a word
Clockwatching
I wish I was a bird
I'd fly right out of the window
The window

This artificial me
I'd like to show you what I really could be
I'd like to run across the office tables
Singing "No you won't have me
No, no, you won't have me
No, no, you won't have me
No, no, you won't have me
And I'll keep a -running 'til I reach the sea"

But I turn awake
I'm just sleep rising
I put on my clothes
Sleep gliding
Onto the bus
Sleep riding to work ...again

I swipe in the door
Sleep lifting
Up to my floor
Sleep dritfing
A number twenty-four
White coffee with a sweetener
A sweetener

This artificial me
One day I'll show you what I really could be
And I'll run across the office tables
Singing "No, you didn't have me
No, no, you won't have me
No, no, you won't have me
And not your company policy
A little more humanity, please
And not your company policy
A little more humanity

I'll keep a -running 'til I reach the sea
I'll keep a- running 'til I reach the sea
I'll keep a- running 'til I reach the sea
I'll keep a- running 'til I reach the sea
I'll keep a- running 'til I reach the sea
