about

"It always crosses my mind that i'm already living in the dystopia - its that movie-like moment, staring out the bus window in the morning watching swarms of people on their morning commute - determined and focused. And then I realise I am one of those people. I think about what I've sacrificed in my own life for the sake of efficiency, speed and achievement - to earn my place in the rat race, and how unnatural this way of living seems in hindsight. 'clones' is my expression of frustration at these times; we live in an age of populism, cancel culture, hyper-validation through social media - a world where we let ourselves be influenced, whether or not into the mainstream or onto the fringes. I don't think i've ever truly had the confidence to move completely against the grain, nor do I think anyone has to, but it is frightening to see how far we've gone in the other direction."

lyrics

Do you really know what the fuck
Is going on these days?
Seems like everybody hell-bent on
Living life the same
I mean, yeah do what you like,
no wrong or right
Piss your days away
Guess if I’m a hypocrite
You must be the shit
not the one to blame

Body so cold
Body like steel,
Copied like clones

Body so cold
Body like steel,
Nobody Is home

Body so cold
Body like steel, and
Flesh like stone

Body so cold
Body with flesh, but
Missing a soul

Oh I got a nice side too,
Do you wanna see?
Oh look at bright side, ooh,
Don’t it look so green?
Will I ever stop, start,
Pause and repeat,
Power my body parts
Just like a machine

Body so cold
Body like steel,
Copied like clones

Body so cold
Body like steel,
Nobody Is home

Body so cold
Body like steel, ad
Flesh like stone

Body so cold
Body with flesh, but
Missing a soul

Body so cold
Body like steel,
Flesh like stone

Body so cold
Body with flesh, but
Missing a soul

Hot and cold with a hard-wired brain
Turnin over engines not my job to maintain
Who’s the ice bitch with the flamethrower now
This body so cold don’t get shocked when you drown

Hot and cold with a hard-wired brain
Hot, hot and cold with a hard-wired
Hot and cold with a hard-wired brain
I'm too hot and cold with a hard-wired brain

Bullet train coming in for the kill
I’m off the rails you know the deal
Don't give two fucks with how you feel
Yeah heating up cos I’m a steal

Hot and cold with a hard-wired brain
Hot, hot and cold with a hard-wired, hard-wired
Hot and cold with a hard-wired brain
I’m too hot and cold with a, hot and cold with a

With a, hot
I’m too hot and cold with a, hot and cold with a
With a, hot
I’m too hot and cold with a, hot and cold with a
