You traded freedom for security
You traded energy for digital money
You gave up privileges for austerity
You're just a number with no identity
And now you stand in line as you clock your time in the machine
And everything is the way you were taught it should be
And now you're on your own just a clone that's inside of a cage
You have it all now you're a slave
now you're a slave
a slave
Now you're a slave
You worship uniform, authority
you love and you fear simultaneously
it's sadomasochism essentially
You're everything you're master wants you to be
And now you stand in line as you clock your time in the machine
And everything is the way you were taught it should be
And now you're on your own just a clone that's inside of a cage
You have it all now you're a slave
now you're a slave
a slave
Now you're a slave
You ignored the warnings
You ignored the signs
You believed their stories
You believed their lies
