All my life they let me know<br /> How far I would not go<br /> But inside the beast still grows<br /> Waiting, chewing through the ropes<br /> Who are you to change this world?<br /> Silly boy<br /> No one needs to hear your words<br /> Let it go<br /> Carnivore, carnivore<br /> Won't you come digest me?<br /> Take away everything I am<br /> Bring it to an end


If you know who I am I want you to think

This isn't my best work as you know

You see me everywhere but now you don't

It's hard to see when you're blinded

Blinded by the data

 

I'm just another point on a graph

My name doesn't matter

I'm just a cog in the machine

The gears turn with or without you

 

Do you think I'm here by choice?

I'm stuck like the rest

Behing the screen you cannot see

What's outside is a mystery

I'm a person not just a point on a graph

 

My life is sold to the highest bidder

The bigger they are the more they can pay

My privacy is nonexistent

Reading the fine print I can't understand

 

Let me be free from my shackles 

Let me fly with the birds

Let me be unknown and anonymous

I just want to blend in

Stop making me stick out
