I try to get a full recharge from you
No common mode, can't take the load
I keep resetting, gone askew
I thought that we could finally interface
Just millivolts, the plugs revolt
My free electrons out of place
I tried to shine a light, but it's not bright
I tried to call on through, but I can't reach you
I tried to keep you warm, but I don't know how
Everything is running out of batteries now
Everything is running out of batteries now
My current's gone to thermal runaway
Can't sink the heat, I'm incomplete
My cooling fan makes no headway
Transmit my urgent signal though the air
Can't jump the gap, caught in the trap
Your jammer caught me unaware
I tried to shine a light, but it's not bright
I tried to call on through, but I can't reach you
I tried to keep you warm, but I don't know how
Everything is running out of batteries now
Everything is running out of batteries now
I tried to match impedances with you
Just fell off track, without feedback
Reflected signals no breakthrough
Now I'm sure I'll never strike that chord
We tried our best, an alpha test
I've gone back to the drawing board
I tried to shine a light, but it's not bright
I tried to call on through, but I can't reach you
I tried to keep you warm, but I don't know how
Everything is running out of batteries now
Everything is running out of batteries now
Everything is running out of batteries now
Everything is running out of batteries now

Very clever play on words throughout this song, with the electrical and electronic references, and using them as metaphors for a relationship.
