Future Brain
Den Harrow Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Stockin' away all the details you want to know
Day after day all your memories get to grow
Putting all that you've stolen
In a prison that you've locked forever
Taking the place of our imagination
But you won't erase my heart

There is no way you can understand what I feel
You never pray 'cause your soul isn't even real
You might know lots of things now
But you can never be a lover
Winning the race with your information
But you can't replace my soul

REFRAIN:
Future brain you make me wonder
Is it sane to make a sample of my love
Future brain you're getting stronger
It's a shame you'll never know how to find love

Living today but tomorrow will be the same
I know I can say that you will never win this game
No matter how much you know now
You will never get to know us never
Taking the place of an institution
But you can't replace my love

Future brain you make me wonder
Is it sane to make a sample of my love
Future brain you're getting stronger
It's a shame you'll never know how to find love

Future brain you great computer
It's insane to program everybody's love
Future brain your list is longer




But you're to blame 'cause you don't know
How stupid you are

Overall Meaning

Den Harrow’s “Future Brain” is a song that is a critique of the way in which technology, with all of its incredible abilities to gather, store, and analyze data, can still never truly replicate the human heart or soul. The lyrics speak to the idea that people can never be fully understood or known by analyzing and quantifying data. The first verse speaks to the idea that people's memories and experiences cannot be simply accumulated and analyzed, as these things truly reside in the heart and soul. The second verse questions the value of knowledge and information if it cannot be used to connect with others and build loving relationships.


Overall, the song is warning against a future in which humans are replaced by machines that know everything about people but lack the ability to understand or connect with them on a deeper level. The chorus reinforces this message, saying that the “future brain” is only getting stronger but will never be able to love or understand as a human can.


In the end, the song is a message of hope and of warning, urging listeners to remember the importance of love and connection in a world where technology can easily replace human connection.
