Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You were my oppressor
And I, I have been programmed to obey
Now, you are my handler
And I, I will execute your demands
[Verse 2]
Leave me alone
I must dissociate from you
[Verse 3]
Behold my transformation
And you are empowered to do as you please
My mind was lost in translation
And my heart has become a cold and impassive machine
[Verse 4]
Leave me alone
I must dissociate from you
[Verse 5]
I won't let you control my feelings anymore
And I will no longer do as I am told
And I am no longer afraid to walk alone
Let me go, let me be
I'm escaping free from your grip
You will never own me again
Written by: Matthew Bellamy
