Analog Trash Lyrics
I've got a secret
I've been watching you
I know you're damaged
but I still want you
You're analog trash
when life is digital
But I prefer you
I think you're beautiful
(Chorus:)
Pull back realign
We are flawed by design
Unplug just for fun
Stop before we hurt someone
Standard Uniform
Corporate life has gone too far
Excess Commodity
I want you just for me
This little secret
gives me something to do
My new obsession
to be like you
You're analog trash
when life is digital
But I prefer this
unreplicatable
CHORUS
Come one, it's not what you think
Come on, just come away with me
Come on, there's so much more to this
Come on, that life you will not miss
CHORUS
I've been watching you
I know you're damaged
but I still want you
You're analog trash
when life is digital
But I prefer you
I think you're beautiful
Pull back realign
We are flawed by design
Unplug just for fun
Stop before we hurt someone
Standard Uniform
Corporate life has gone too far
Excess Commodity
I want you just for me
gives me something to do
My new obsession
to be like you
You're analog trash
when life is digital
But I prefer this
unreplicatable
Come on, just come away with me
Come on, there's so much more to this
Come on, that life you will not miss

The narrator finds someone like them, but more mature and secure with themself. They're also flawed (appearance-wise, society-wise, or both), and the narrator feels unoriginal, finding someone so like them (analog means clone, or copy). At the same time, they're inspired to the point of stalking and wanting to be like them, and wanting to BE like them. Beautiful song.
Completely wrong. 'Analog' is a technical term. If try to explain without going too deep, 'analog' is an antonym for 'digital'. Your old phone and TV were analog, your smartphone and smartTV are digital. Narrator finds someone is behind the times, but pretty. Narrator uses the metaphor: "you are analog trash when life is digital".
