Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I used to be a human being

Now I live in the web

News descend on me like the rain

Take what's left of me

And my free time

[Verse 2]

Just take a look at my hands, what can they do now?

All these years of hard work and they can do nothing now

Fear takes hold of me, what am I to do to change it now?

They found a way to measure me in big beautiful data

[Verse 3]

I tried reading books but that skill eludes me now

Oh, I don't know how

I don't know how

I don't know how

No, I don't know how

[Verse 4]

My dreams are filled with snippets of codes

I spend hours daily in a panic mode

Am I about to succeed?

Am I running behind?

My brain is atrophied

My eyes are going blind

[Verse 5]

I am naked all the time

I am burning inside

I am the voice no one can hear

I am drifting through the years

[Verse 6]

I am the ocean

I am the moon

I am dying far too soon

[Verse 7]

I am the needle

And I am the hole

I grow handsome and tall

I am sorry for my mistakes

I am taking one more breath
