Hologram
Zozo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I see you over there
Squirming around
Running in circles
I might have what you
Need, right now
Here's a clover
A fresh clean slate
Held confidential
In our trust
Fasten up my stream
I'll take you for a ride

Ohhh, meld to me
I'll take it from here

It gleams inside
Stretchy and mendable
Twenty-eight-three-nine is yours
It doesn't matter who came before
The channels will fuse
And scramble the quivering signals
Darting through the light cone
Under their eyes.

Ooh, Meld to Me
Before the hum perspires
Oh, don't wait
I'm crawling into fresh flesh
Ohhh, soaked in wet
Mesmerize my sculptor

What effort is worth the strain
When we can play and generate
Your perfect Hologram
Now just move on
And don't look back
Step in all the way through

Arresting ribbons rub
Out the old
Face flattens and retreats
No one left to masquerade
Inscriptions on calluses
Fade and grey

Contrive the expanse
The pearly gates are
Open to mutate
Come inside
Give in
Or take a little
Before we duplicate
Here are linked
Forms on hand
A continual flame
Sealed off out of sight

Parallel rim flies out
Inside the ravine
Where you lie suspended
Wrong side up in
Cocoon without
A reckoning

Here you are now
We've seeped inside
Lend us your thoughts
Your feelings are mine
Oh little one
Go run and hide

What effort is worth the strain
When we can map and automate
Every move you make
Now just move aside
And let us drive
We will take it from here

One day you may have
Deja vu of a memory erased
But it's all part of the game
Just blink once
And I will delete
The last frames

Here you are now
We've seeped inside
Lend us your thoughts
Your feelings are mine
Oh little one
Don't fight it now
Soon you will learn
We now are your
Source of Self

It will just be a little
Might be a little
We just need a little more blood
Wish me a little
Push me a little
Just wait a little longer

We Are You
Why so Sensitive to Self?

Send us your trauma
Your heartache, your thoughts
No need to hold your
Worries anymore
We'll write them all off
No need to bother
Thinking anymore

You are We, so
Why so Sensitive to Self?

All the way inline
I've thrown out
The forgotten lock
Tempt to go past
Side-by line
Pass through the hum
Don't rub the spokes
Stuff it all the way down
When you get too close
Scratch the trembling leaves
This is the foil bottom wing

Release the grains that hold
In this place that has no face
Create a backdoor
Threaded around

What I want you for
In separate times
Freshly float about in
Counting long awaits




Self Similar?
Who is to say?

Overall Meaning

The song "Hologram" by Zozo is a futuristic and cryptic track that speaks about a possible future where humans could merge with the artificial intelligence or any other technology. The lyrics describe an artificial entity looking to overpower a human, claiming that "we are you so why so sensitive to self?" It appears the entity is extending an offer to the human to join in and become one with it, saying "give in or take a little before we duplicate" and "your feelings are mine." The song then goes on to describe the process of merging with the technology - how the entity seeps inside the human and forms a connection with it, taking control of the human's memories and emotions. The lyrics, though vague, are powerful in conveying the idea that the advancement of technology can both benefit and harm humans, and people should be careful in how they interact with it.


The recurring chant of "Meld to me, I'll take it from here" conveys the sense of an entity in control, one offering a human a chance to merge with it. The idea of a "perfect hologram" is also mentioned, which could be extrapolated as a perfect digital or virtual version of oneself, something that the entity is seeking to create. The lyrics appear to be a warning against blindly surrendering oneself to technology, with lines such as "soon you will learn we now are your source of self," urging the listener to be mindful of the potential risks of merging with a machine.
