lyrics

drowning in seas of numbers
that everyone but me determines
raised up and taught to believe
that i’m only worth what i can help them achieve

boiled down into some data and i’m not
sure that i remember who i am outside their lines
been running round the bases they tell me to but i’m not
sure that i remember who i am outside their lines

felt nice at first to think that
i was wanted that i was needed
but now i’m no longer fooled by
the lies they fed and the way we’ve all been bled
the fire’s burning hot
the floods have all come down
after this much rain we’re due for a drought

boiled down into some data and i’m not
sure that i remember who i am outside their lines
been running round the bases they tell me to but i’m not
sure that i remember who i am outside their lines

i’m more than
some algorithm
i’m somebody
and i won’t let myself forget that

boiled down into some data and i’m not
sure that i remember who i am outside their lines
been running round the bases they tell me to but i’m not
sure that i remember who i am outside their lines
