Who stays awake counting nothing
Who wears a mask so well they forgot their face
Who dreams of escape but never leaves
Who tells their pain to strangers, silent in crowds
Who wants to be real but knows how to lie
Who saves the world on paper while drowning at home
Who loves the feeling of love but forgets how to touch
Who says they're finding themselves while running from their shadow
Who buys the cure for a wound they created
Who wants to matter but forgot what's real
Who's got a hole they can't fill
Who's working two jobs for nothing, always nervous
Who swears they'll leave tomorrow, trapped in today
Who's talking about freedom while building their cage
Who reads about oceans but never gets wet
Who preaches liberation but's terrified of silence
Who says they want connection but counts every glance
Who dreams of being different but they're all the same
The machine keeps humming
HUMMING ON
The machine keeps humming
HUMMING ON
HUMMING ON!
HUMMING ON!
HUMMING ON!
Detachment, Frustration
But counts every glance
Who dreams of being different but they're all the samemore
