Automatic
Sasha Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Another dawn another day I long to waste
I like the comfort of the chaos in my place
I put my mind on hold my conscience on standby
For a little while

Another promise to my room I couldn't keep
Another night just full of television sleep
And all my books are getting on the shelf

I liven up for giving in
I'm never cold but shivering
The more I learn the less I know
Gotta dig myself out of this hole 'cause

Sometimes I feel so automatic in this automatic world
I can't escape my automatic this automatic world

Now and then I realize a trail of fear
Every time my resolutions disappear
But then again I'm slipping back into release

I liven up for giving in
I'm never cold but shivering
The more I learn the less I know
Gotta dig myself out of this hole 'cause

Sometimes I feel so automatic in this automatic world
I can't escape my automatic this automatic world

I'm sick of it all
Just rising to fall
I'm hiding to seek
I'm a freak what a freak
Though it's only on my mind
Until now I failed to find the way of control

Sometimes I feel so automatic in this automatic world
I can't escape my automatic this automatic world





Sometimes I feel so automatic in this automatic world
I can't escape my automatic this automatic world

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Sasha's song "Automatic" seem to be about the feeling of being stuck in a monotonous routine in a world that is constantly moving without pause. The opening lines "Another dawn another day I long to waste / I like the comfort of the chaos in my place" suggest a desire to remain idle despite the chaos around them. The singer goes on to describe putting their "mind on hold" and their "conscience on standby" in order to escape the demands of the world for a little while. They also make reference to broken promises and resolutions, which juxtaposes with the repetitive nature of their days.


The chorus of the song, "Sometimes I feel so automatic in this automatic world / I can't escape my automatic this automatic world," highlights the feeling of being trapped in a cycle that is difficult to break free from. The repetition of the word "automatic" emphasises this feeling, as if the singer is just going through the motions of life without any real control.


The final verse is particularly poignant, as the singer expresses their frustration with their inability to break free from their routine and have control over their life. The line "Though it's only on my mind / Until now I failed to find the way of control" suggests that the desire for change and control is just a thought for now, and that they have yet to find a way to make it a reality.

Still coming back to this song. Real masterpiece. 👌

@carlosalvarado5924

Another brilliant track by the musical savant that is Kaskade. The made verse and beat to this song is haunting. Sasha Sloan was the perfect singer for this track.

@MadameDesiree

I will forever love this song, this song has got me through some of the hardest times. Thank you so much for your Beautiful Lyrics and Music❤❤❤ It's because of your words that have helped me become a Survivor/Warrior.

@Kaskade

“Phoenix” on #AUTOMATIC is about letting go of the things that don’t matter + not letting fear have control.

@WillyMcFlyy

Kaskade, this song is beautiful. Really spoke to me. Letting go of things that don't matter and focusing on my son and family. I was scared since I don't know what kind of parent I would be but I'm letting go of the fear. Focusing on loving my son with all my heart and believing in myself.

@graveyard1982

Damn dude I thought it was about the sense of vacancy and loneliness in Phoenix AZ...

@vfs2282

+William Perez nice man. You'll be a great parent. 😉
