System Overload

Problem after problem is all life throws my way
I am worn out at the end of each day
People seem to think I am strong and that I am
But there are times when i do not want to be a man
I just want to turn off all the lights and sit in the dark
Be left alone in a land so stark
My mind computes every ones problems plus mine
And I think it is finally that time
Logic has reached full capacity
Judgement has reach full capacity
Character has reached full capacity
Inner Strength failing
What's going on with me
"System Overload, Systems rebooting......... systems shutting down"
No,no,no no no NO! This can't be, I'm stronger then this
Switch to Maximum energy reserves......"Heart is empty. Energy reserves have been depleted"
Shit! I'm empty
Nothing inside this cold machine
Now I'm stranded in this empty shell
I need to find love
Systems, I need you to search for the nearest source of Love and Inner Strength
"Searching....."
"Searching........"
"Searching............."
"Searching....."
