But to me, I see this song (taken on its own, of course) as the relationship between man and his ever-growing child, technology. From my point of view, the machine is the son becoming, throughout the song's course, a more mature and functioning individual who wishes for nothing more than his freedom as a sentient and human-like being. But the father figure, mankind, refuses to see the child as what it truly is: a person, a son that we...
