"Robot" Sangtekst

It's been like this from the start
One piece after another to make my heart
You mistake the game for bein' smart
Stand here, sell this, and hit your mark

But the sound of the steel
And the crush, and the grind
It all screams "who am I, to decide my life?"
But in time it all dies, there's nothin' left inside
Just rusted metal that was never even mine
I would scream, but I'm just this hollow shell
Waiting here, beggin' 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 a part of the big machine
I'm breakin' free, can't you see
I can't love, 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 were nothin but crossed wires in my head
I've been taught to think that what I feel doesn't matter at all
Till you say it's real
I would scream, but I'm just this hollow shell
Waiting here, beggin' 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 a part of the big machine
I'm breakin' free, can't you see
I can't love, 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 (ahhhhhh)
I'm not your robot, I'm just me (ahhhhhh)
I'm not your robot

I would scream, but I'm just this hollow shell
Waiting here, beggin' 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 a part of the big machine
I'm breakin' free, can't you see
I can't love, 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 (ahhhhhh)
I'm not your robot, I'm just me (ahhhhhh)
I'm not your robot
