Hologram Lyrics
Backstreet Boys
Lyrics
I-I-I gotta make-make my way-way-way through all of these people
Gotta pay-pay all of this money just so-so I-I can see you
I'm about to act a dog on you, gonna release a dog on you
I'm about to bon-bon chicka bon-bon-bon-bon
Run it back till I bon-bon-bon, and show ‘em up
And I got technology, x-ray vision; any game I can see through
I get static every time you speak; frequency, gotta be equal
I'm tired of playing, can't even hear the stuff you saying
Cause it's like round (round, round, round)
(round, round, round)
Hologram
I'm pushing up close but it's hard to get to ya
Hologram
There's a glitch in the system, tell me what I gotta do now (oh damn)
Hologram
Illusion, confusion, I'm losing ground
Whoa, hologram
(hey, hologram, hey, hologram, hey)
Whoa, hologram
You want me to flip the switch out so I-I can be your victim
I ain't gonna slip up, like going outside in the rain with no umbrella
What the hell do you take me for? I'm'a take a different route
I'm about to bon-bon chicka bon-bon-bon-bon
Run it back, do the bon-bon-bon, and show ‘em up
Baby you're a choo-choo train, baby put that thing on me
You'd rather see my main frame, not the cage, and see another side of me
And she be like T-minus-seven before my system shuts down
And in fact I think I'm ‘bout to shut it down right now
Hologram
I'm pushing up close but it's hard to get to ya
Hologram
There's a glitch in the system, tell me what I gotta do now (oh damn)
Hologram
Illusion, confusion, I'm losing ground
Whoa, hologram
(hey, hologram, hey, hologram, hey)
Whoa, hologram
I'm tired of playing with you, right now I think your time's up
Giving mixed signals that I don't have control of
I'm losing my mind, perfect model before my time
Download to my instant data; give me a sock and I can plug it in
Hologram
I'm pushing up close but it's hard to get to ya
Hologram
There's a glitch in the system, tell me what I gotta do now (oh damn)
Hologram
Illusion, confusion, I'm losing ground
Whoa, hologram
(hey, hologram, hey, hologram, hey)
Whoa, hologram
Song & Lyrics Facts

The lyrics of the song discuss how love can be like a hologram; it looks real but isn't quite there. The chorus repeats the line “It’s like a hologram, I know it ain’t real/But I feel something when you look at me still” as if to emphasize that although love may not always be tangible, its effects are still felt.
