Nuclear Heart

I've seen beyond the veil Of a thousand suns All alone, left behind Among the remnants Of the nuclear war No way to recharge my battery Soon I'll drift to sleep How I wish you could sing me One last lullaby For my nuclear heart I am just a prototype Made by a race who got wiped By fallout like a butterfly Spreading seeds of demise from up high Beneath the mushroom clouds Who am I? Why was I made? To suffer a world long decayed? My battery is running low Wish I could be buried down below Beside my maker now Cascading system failures Left me partially immobilized My maker would know how to fix me I remember him clearly through my cameras But how can he remember me Now that he's a ghost He's gone, of a bygone era What does that make me? Do I want to know? An unfinished chimera, a useless replica A relic lost in time So close to total system shutdown I'm lonely, I'm terrified I don't want to die After all this time, all alone Still I want more Is this too much to ask for? If my maker's in a better place Will I meet him there after I too pass away? Can there even be anything for me In a world where I don't belong? Let this be my dying thought
