Nobody's Real Lyrics

Scary monsters and super peeps
the more you dream the less you sleep
life as you know it has gone away
unbound, unwound, who's here to stay
Could you predict, could you foresee artificial by necessity
rockets and robots can save your life when you don't care about what's real it's alright

nobody's real but they're willing to let you know
nobody's real but they'll feel it tonight
nobody's real but they're willing to let you go
nobody's real but they'll feel it

nobody's real

how do you sleep with the time that's left you,
it's all been done there's no need for the rescue
so let's just get out, i swear there's no doubt,
you can't be ready cause there's nothing left to do...

This is about the Theory of reality not being all we see and that everything we percieve as reality is in fact an illusion. Could be about not trusting people as well I guess. But I think the intention is about the first sentence here.

I agree 100%, but would add that Powerman5000 seems to think that either way, it does not matter, since the potential illusion has such effects on us that change our conscience thought patterns. Powerman5000 tends to be very loose with their songs, seeming to use lyrics that encourage thought beyond the song and intended meaning into personal interpretations.

Kickass song!!! Only problem is that the lyrics here are missing the first chorus, between "who's here to stay..." and "Could you predict..." who cares though, gotta love PM5K!!!!

You have my deepest sympathy.

I think this song is explains the virtual setting of everything and the dreamlike state that we're in. Holding high hopes and aspirations to persons and things that we can't attain, therefore...nobody's real.

Artificial intelligence has flushed our compassion. We're inevitably eliminated senselessness.

This song was okay the first time I heard it. They have maybe two good songs. I don't like powerman 5000.
