Lyrics
Trudge through life wond’ring why, insane asylum
disconnect reconnect, seeking asylum
flip the switch no signal, is this the end
all the same days and days, alienation
The powers say “You’re productivity”
Through life trudge ‘ring why wond, asylum insane
reconnect disconnect, asylum seeking
the switch flip signal no, the end is this
the same all and days days, enation-ali
Commodities to be traded
Life trudge through why wond’ring, lum insane asy
nect discon nect recon, king asylum see,
switch flip the nal no sig, end is this the
same all the days days and, nation-alie
Impotent on cue emotion
Ice blocks in tech-no cubes melting re-
livery placements-re tomatons-
auto func-tion-dys la-tion-re shift-
less pacing tic mista-kenly no
Trudge through life wond’ring why, insane asylum
disconnect reconnect, seeking asylum
flip the switch no signal, is this the end
all the same days and days, alienation
Decapita-ted sterile commotion a loco
