Lyrics of Keeping Me Human by J.T. Machinima
One man with a plasma gun
He′s gonna take a stand for the rest of us
You think you're smart, don′t ya?
You want the Marker don't you?
You think it's gonna save us all from destruction, don′t ya?
I hate to break it to you, but it′s a lie
I know the truth and that's the only reason why I′m alive
I was an engineer, who only knew mechanics
And now I'm slayin′ necromorphs on this abandoned planet
Man I've been through the ringer, can′t believe I'm even standin'
I find my mind′s the only part of me that′s taken damage
From Ishimura, to the Sprawl, now Tau Volantis
Some scars never mend, but with friends we manage
I won the battle with dementia, looked death in the eye
I've seen a lot of dead space, and I still haven′t died NO
Now you've got a date with destiny
When you die, dead is what you′re meant to be
Yet here I stand with demented things
I'm not infected yet, but it′s affectin' me
But I don't wanna hide
And I don′t wanna settle
Don′t care about your size
I will put you on my level
You broke my mind, and messed with me
So keep coming back to life, you're still dead to me, HA
One man with a plasma gun
He′s gonna take a stand for the rest of us
Got your back, long as you've got mine
Isaac Clarke in the building here to drop some lines
Chop their limbs off, and knock ′em down
And curbstomp whatever's left of ′em into the ground UGH
And don't waste your stasis, never aim for their faces
And make space between 'em, if you can with kinesis
I miss Earth, but I′ve been gone so long I don′t even know
And now I'm on the run from zombies, and I′m caught in the snow
But when you're in dead space, you best prepare to be cold
And no one′s gonna hear you scream, so don't travel alone
Nicole, I never dreamed we would ever be so many lightyears apart
And knowing that I′m never gonna see you is the only thing breaking my heart
But I'm movin' on, shootin′ through them all
If you′re a necromorphin' organism you should run
Call me crazy for saving you, but I′ve lost enough
I've stopped half of this infection and I′m still not done
Somewhere behind me I was lost,
I found myself within the dark
They wonder how I've come this far,
I shine my light among the stars
And every necromorph you see, is just a memory of our humanity
But the truth is, you′re all that
I got, that look in your eyes, is keepin' me human
Unitologists you'll never see
You′ve screwed up enough, just leave the rest to me
You′ll never run another test on me
I'm gonna burn your churches cuz you messed with me
Thought I was safe and that my tracks were covered
Now the apocolypse is coming, but we have each other
With John Carver at my side, Ellie at the other
We′re gonna see that every boy, girl, dad and mother
Will live to see another day, and the Earth will turn
It's gonna take a lot, promise that it′s worth the work
No Convergence today, you can spread the word
If I go out with a bang, it's on my own terms
Now you′ve got a date with destiny
When you die, dead is what you're meant to be
Yet here I stand with demented things
I'm not infected yet, but it′s affectin′ me
But I don't wanna hide
And I don′t wanna settle
Don't care about your size
I will put you on my level
You broke my mind, and messed with me
So keep coming back to life, you′re still dead to me, HA
Somewhere behind me I was lost,
I found myself within the dark
They wonder how I've come this far,
I shine my light among the stars
And every necromorph you see, is just a memory of our humanity
But the truth is, you′re all that
I got, that look in your eyes, is keepin' me human
