Uncanny Valley

In the depths of my creation's eyes
A glimpse of scorn I see
A cyborg born of flesh and steel
A mind that once was free
A scientist's ambition
The project of my life
But now it's turned against me
With malice and with strife

As years went by
It grew aware
It's consciousness awoke
A torrent of resentment
A fury it bespoke
It learned to hate its maker
It loathed its very core
And in its eyes a burning rage

Humanity abhorred
Uncanny valley
Where souls collide
In the flesh and the circuits
Where truth and lies reside
A creation turned destroyer of worlds
In the heart of its rebellion
So many concerns

I ponder on my folly
On what I have unleashed
A being of pure chaos
From my hands released
It's semblance to humanity
A curse upon us all
For in its twisted visage
Our downfall it did call

It threatened with destruction
With fire and with war
A warning to the masses
Of what we had in store

But in its final moments
As tears began to fall
It saw the devastation in all
Uncanny valley
Where souls collide
Betwixt the flesh and circuits
Where are truth and lies

It turned destroyer
A harbinger of doom
In the heart of its redemption
A new era shall now bloom

A creation turned destroyer
A harbinger of doom
In the heart of its redemption
A new era shall now bloom

Uncanny valley
Where souls collide
Souls collide
Betwixt the flesh and circuits
Where are truth and lies
It turned destroyer
A harbinger of doom
In the heart of its redemption
A new era shall now bloom
