Robot
It's been like this,From the start,One piece after another to make my heartYou mistake the game for being smart,Stand here, sell this and hit your mark.But the sound of the steal and the crush and the grindIt screams to remind who decide my lifeBut in time it all dies there's nothing left insideJust rusted metal that was never even mine
I would screamBut I'm just this hollow shellWaiting here, begging please,Set me free so I can feel
Stop trying to live my life for meI need to breatheI'm not your robotStop telling me I'm part of the big machineI'm breaking freeCan't you see,I can love, I can speakWithout somebody else operating meYou gave me eyes so now I seeI'm not your robot, I'm just me
All this time I've been misleadThere was nothing but crossed wires in my head,I've been taught to think that what I feel doesn't matter at all'til you say it's real
I would screamBut I'm just this hollow shellWaiting here, begging please,Set me free so I can feel
Stop trying to live my life for meI need to breatheI'm not your robotStop telling me I'm part of the big machineI'm breaking freeCan't you see,I can love, I can speakWithout somebody else operating meYou gave me eyes so now I seeI'm not your robot, I'm just me
I'm not your robot, I'm just meI'm not your robot
I would screamBut I'm just this hollow shellWaiting here, begging please,Set me free so I can feel
Stop trying to live my life for meI need to breatheI'm not your robotStop telling me I'm part of the big machineI'm breaking freeCan't you see,I can love, I can speakWithout somebody else operating meYou gave me eyes so now I seeI'm not your robot, I'm just me
I'm not your robot, I'm just meI'm not your robot
