Automatic Lyrics

Automatic
Automatic

You're automatic,
and your hearts like an engine
I die with every beat
You're automatic,
and your voice is electric
Why do I still believe?

It's automatic
everywhere in your letter
A lie that makes me bleed
It's automatic
when you say things get better
but they never...

There's no real love in you
There's no real love in you
There's no real love in you
Why do I keep loving you?

It's automatic,
counting cars on a crossroad
They come and go like you
It's automatic,
watching faces I don't know
Erase the face of you

It's automatic
Systematic
So traumatic
You're automatic

There's no real love in you
There's no real love in you
There's no real love in you
Why do I keep loving you?

Automatic
Automatic
Automatic
Automatic

Each step you make
Each breath you take
Your heart. Your soul.
Remote-controlled
This life is so sick
You're automatic to me

(Love in you)
(Love in you)
There's no real love in you
There's no real love in you

There's no real love in you
There's no real love in you
There's no real love in you
Why do I keep loving you?

Automatic
(Theres no real)
Automatic
(Love in you)
Automatic
(Why do I)
Automatic
(Keep loving you?)
Automatic...

Bill has stated that this song is about an 'emotionless human'.

I don't remember seeing that interview.

I remember Tom saying that it was more like a relationship that becomes too routine and 'automatic' and how for a relationship that's a bad thing. It was in the Viva Live interview. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9XxStjfHdJ4)

The boys have said that it's about automatic love but also automatic people, like in the music industry; they wrote it as a love song probably, but it can be interpreted either way. So saying the song is about an "emotionless human" isn't really too far off.

I didn't expect something like this from Tokio Hotel, but I like it. And it's catchy too :)

Well...aside from the first comment ^_^ ... ... ...

        My first impression of this song was that it was indeed of an emotionless human. If you need a hint, the lines: 

  It's automatic,
  watching faces I don't know
  Erase the face of you.

It seems though as if other people influence who this song is directed to( who bill is speaking to) but they don't seem to care how they are affected by others. They might have been different in the past (erase the face of you).

this leaves the teller of this story heartbroken yet still attached (why do i keep loving you?)

well....anyway,

GREAT SONG!!! I got chills when i first heard it, considering it sounded like tokio hotel almost went SCENE on us all D:

idk im only a teenager from the school of the arts.

have a nice day ppl

My Interpretation

I think this song is about someone with automatic feelings toward someone. So the person is just so sick of having an automatic relationship and so they just want to brake it off.

It's weird for me because it's like the song is talking about me because this is what a boy I know is accusing me of. o.o Kinda trippy. Didn't think I could relate to this.

First off, not what I expected from TH, but I really liked the song when I first heard it. You really have to listen to get the chorus right though. Bill is basically saying that someone clearly is emotionless, robotic, and that he knows he's wasting his time with whoever. You really have to watch the video to get the full impact of lyric and meaning. Bill's amazing with his vocals in this piece.

I love this song, it's been my favourite song for about 6 months now.

Well, to me, this is what it means:

You can keep on loving someone, no matter what. It's automatic loving them ... you just can't remember doing anything except that. And they don't even love you back, but you keep on loving them, and you just don't know why. You can try anything to forget them, but in the end, your heart always go back to them. And you don't even want to love them anymore, but that's all you have.

This is from personal experience. My favourite part is the last chorus and the outro ... they just sound so desperate, like there's nothing left inside you except loving them. You've become automatic. <3
