lyrics

Flickering screen started screaming at me
And the cables and wires jacked into my veins
The ones and zeroes told me who I was
Somebody else for a moment

A computer chanting binary meets me in the morning
It thanks me for my customer service and smile
Then it kicks in my teeth because I stood out too much
And breaks them down into fuel for a while

I couldn't speak because my mouth was full of blood
And the bile rising up was kept down with great force
So I'm left shaking and smiling and nodding along
While I'm replaced by someone who threatens you less

Wake me up with the laser life
Strangle me with cables 'til the sun forgets to die
Let a sapphire sky watch me burn to dust
From the ashes take a phoenix to murder self disgust

A difference in opinion, now I cease to exist
A thousand years erased because it's inconvenient
I'm a perfect citizen as long as I don't ask too much
