How does this work?
Caution: You are now annotating this song as
[Verse 1]
Link it to the world
Link it to yourself
Stretch it like a birth squeeze
The love for what you hide
The bitterness inside
Is growing like the new born
When you've seen, seen
Too much
Too young, young
Soulless is everywhere

[Verse 2]
Hopeless time to roam
The distance to your home
Fades away to nowhere
How much are you worth?
You can't come down to earth
You're swelling up
You're unstoppable
Cause you've seen, seen
Too much
Too young, young
Soulless is everywhere

[Hook]
Destroy the spineless
Show me it's real
Wasting our last chance to come away
Just break the silence
Cause I'm drifting away
Away from you

[Verse 1]

[Hook]

About New Born

It’s about a semi-fear of the evolution of technology, and how in reality it’s destroying all humanity. My fear is that we can’t control it because it’s moving faster than we are, so the songs setting myself in a location in the future where the body is no longer important and everyone’s plugged into a network. The opening line is ‘link it to the world’, so it’s connecting yourself on a worldwide scale and being born into another reality, in a way it’s on the same lines as the film The Matrix, but we weren’t intending on copying their idea on technology and how it has evolved.

Matt Bellamy
