melluransaAnd what are these, eh? Rejected lyrics? They don't flow very well, so I can see why. I do like the intimacy of this version though. Every time Bill says, "Many things in life are automatic, but love and relationships should never be automatic," the song in English doesn't reflect that theme. But these reject lyrics do!
Rejected Automatic
It's automatic when you're touching me like this
So far away from me
It's automatic when you whisper your promises
Why do I still believe
It's automatic every word 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
-
-
Why do I keep loving you
It's automatic you play innocent angel
Who will you be tonight
It's automatic, you pretend that it's ok
But nothing is alright
It's automatic, systematic, so traumatic
You're automatic
There's no real love in you
-
-
Why do I keep loving you
Each step you make
Each breath you take
Your heart, your soul
Remote controlled
This life is so sick
You're automatic to me
English Automatic
You're automatic and your heart's like an engine
I die with every beat
It's automatic and your voice is electric
Why do I still believe
It's automatic every word 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
-
-
Why do I keep loving you
It's automatic counting cars on the 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
Each step you make
Each breath you take
Your heart, your soul
Remote controlled
This life is so sick
You're automatic to me

So automatic, you’re just like a machine
Your heart no longer beats for me
So automatic, let me have your hands
You’re the only one who doesn’t notice
So automatic, your voice is electric
Who are you when it speaks?
So automatic how you say I’m so important
Who programmed you?
When you laugh, you’re not laughing
When you cry, you’re not crying
When you feel, you’re not feeling
Because there’s no love in you
Like automatic
I’m running through all the streets
Without a lead on you
Like automatic
Your shadow follows
And reaches cold for me
Like you’re
Remote-controlled, static and mechanic
So automatic
Your gaze, so empty
I can’t do this anymore
Everything about you
Like it’s rehearsed
You stand here
And spare your awful greed for me
My conclusion is that elements from all three should be made into one super song!
