t’s been like this from the start, one piece after another to make my heart, you mistake the game for being smart, “Stand here”, “sell this”, and “hit your mark” But the sound of the steel, And the crush and the grind, It’ll scream cause who am I to decide my life? But in time it all dies, There’s nothing left inside, Just rusted metal that was never even mine
I would scream, but I’m just this hallow shell, waiting here, begging “please” Set me free so I can feel
hey! stop trying to live my life for me, I need to breathe, I’m not your robot Stop telling me I’m part of the big machine I’m breaking free, can’t you see? I can’t move, I can’t speak, without somebody else operating me, You gave me eyes and now I see, I’m not your robot, I’m just me
All this time, I’ve been misled, There was nothing but crosswires in my head, I’ve been taught to think about what I feel, doesn’t matter at all until you say it’s real
I would scream, but I’m just this hallow shell, waiting here, begging “please” set me free so I can feel
hey! stop trying to live my life for me, I need to breathe, I’m not your robot Stop telling me I’m part of the big machine I’m breaking free, can’t you see? I can’t move, I can’t speak, without somebody else operating me, You gave me eyes and now I see, I’m not your robot, I’m just me
I’m not your robot, I’m just me
I’m not your robot
I would scream, but i’m just this hallow shell, waiting here, breaking free, set me free so I can feel
stop trying to live my life for me, I need to breathe, I’m not your robot Stop telling me I’m part of the big machine I’m breaking free, can’t you see? I can’t move, I can’t speak, without somebody else operating me, You gave me eyes and now I see, I’m not your robot, I’m just me
