I want to know where I should go,
Should I travel your path or find my own?
I know it's time to decide,
To figure out what to do with this life.
But can I really be free in your society,
Adjust to your norms and your beliefs?
Can I be tamed within your frames?
Can I be free if I'm in chains?
I am the monster you tamed,
A beast inside its cage.
Now I'm the bitter clown in your play,
A proud man, drowning in shame.
Gave up on my dreams,
Sucked down in the flood that is the mainstream,
I transformed, became the norm that I fear the most.
I am the monster you tamed,
A beast inside its cage.
Now I'm the bitter clown in your play,
A proud man, drowning in shame.
There's something, calling deep within me,
Begging to be released.
I let myself die piece by piece in your machinery,
I've been adapting for so long.
It's time, I finally got to see,
Who's the strong and who's the weak,
The beast or the machine.
I am the monster you tamed,
A best inside its cage.
Now I'm the bitter clown in your play,
A proud man, drowning in shame.
