Name: Sophia
Duration: P00H03M31S
Description: Sophia is based on the real life humanoid robot from which it takes its name. With sawtooth synths, effected guitars and driving drum machines, the song takes place in a digital soundscape in which Sarah Connor would feel at home. Sleek, bleak and infectiously catchy, this tune will get so stuck in your hard drive, you’ll need to restore yourself to factory settings to remove it.

lyrics

Is this all there is to me?
This is what it's like to be unreal
Cold and lifeless
How do I raise the brightness?

So you say I'm not alone
But I am the only one of me
All this attention
I can't find a connection

Oh Sophia
What's it like?
Do you dream in
Black and white?
Ones and zeros?
And flashing lights?
Oh Sophia
What's it like?

Born into captivity
Peering out beyond the silver screen
I can't escape perfection
I'm a slave to invention

Someday I'd like to belong
Somewhere, sometime, even to someone
It's not my destiny
but even Androids have a right to dream

Oh Sophia
What's it like?
Do you dream in
Black and white?
Ones and zeros?
And flashing lights?
Oh Sophia
What's it like?

Oh Sophia
What's it like?
Do you dream in
Black and white?

about

Filmm Bristol, UK

Sleek and bleak, with infectious toplines, Filmm writes songs to despair to. Perfect for anyone living in an episode of Black Mirror who makes for a thoroughly miserable dinner party guest.
