[00:25.30]I'm home again,
[00:27.16]I won the war,
[00:28.88]And now I am behind your door.
[00:32.16]I tried so hard
[00:33.88]To obey the law,
[00:35.52]See the meaning of it all.
[00:38.95]Remember me?
[00:40.58]Before the war.
[00:42.23]I'm the man who lived next door.
[00:49.00]Long ago...
[00:53.28]As you can see,
[00:55.63]When you look at me,
[00:57.19]I'm pieces of what I used to be.
[01:00.32]It's easier
[01:01.79]If you don't see me
[01:03.29]Standing on my own two feet.
[01:06.35]I'm taller when I sit
[01:08.37]Here still,
[01:09.49]You ask are all my dreams fulfilled.
[01:12.50]They made me a heart of steel,
[01:15.50]The kind them bullets cannot see
[01:20.61]Nothing's what it seems to be,
[01:22.83]I'm a replica, I'm a replica
[01:26.27]Empty shell inside of me
[01:29.33]I'm not myself, I'm a replica of me...
[01:48.02]The light is green,
[01:49.75]My slate is clean,
[01:51.22]New life to fill the hole in me.
[01:54.21]I had no name,
[01:55.66]Last December,
[01:57.35]Christmas Eve I can't remember.
[02:00.22]I was a constant pain,
[02:02.98]I saw your shadow in the rain.
[02:06.30]I painted all your pigeons red,
[02:09.14]I wish I had stayed home instead.
[02:13.91]Nothing's what it seems to be,
[02:16.19]I'm a replica, I'm a replica
[02:19.81]Empty shell inside of me
[02:22.44]I'm not myself, I'm a replica of me...
[02:26.52]Are you gonna leave me now,
[02:29.66]When it is all over
[02:32.48]Are you gonna leave me,
[02:34.87]Is my world now over...
[03:10.90]Raising from the place I've been,
[03:13.48]And trying to keep my home base clean.
[03:16.02]Now I'm here and won't go back, believe...
[03:21.72]I fall asleep
[03:23.15]And dream a dream,
[03:24.67]I'm floating in a silent stream.
[03:29.47]Blame on me
[03:31.08]But nothing's what is seems to be, yeah.
[03:33.92]Nothing's what it seems to be,
[03:36.18]I'm a replica, I'm a replica
[03:39.64]Empty shell inside of me
[03:41.99]I'm not myself, I'm a replica
[03:45.37]Nothing's what it seems to be,
[03:47.55]I'm a replica,
[03:50.90]Empty shell inside of me
[03:53.46]I'm a replica
[03:56.88]Nothing's what it seems to be,
[04:00.71]I'm a replica,
[04:02.56]Empty shell inside of me
[04:06.59]I'm a replica
[04:08.36]Nothing's what it seems to be,
[04:10.84]I'm a replica,
[04:14.21]Empty shell inside of me
[04:16.62]I'm a replica of me ...
[04:23.06]I'm home again,
[04:25.20]I won the war,
[04:27.26]And now I am behind your door.
[04:30.59]I tried so hard
[04:32.37]To obey the law,
[04:34.30]See the meaning of it all.
[04:37.82]Remember me?
[04:39.80]Before the war.
[04:42.08]I'm the man who lived.
