Gears & Bolts
I am gonna show the world
Exactly what I am
I'm a product of my environment
And a crumbling society
I'm alive and I'm angry
And I want to be heard
I want to take back what was stolen
'cause I'm a product of your broken world
Of your broken world
I refuse to be like everybody else
Heartless and soulless
Just gears and bolts
The people around here will devour your soul
And if you don't fight back
They will take control
Society is a masquerade
And everyone wants to play the game
So you grab your mask that hangs by the front door
And you put it on like all of the days before
Well I don't wanna wear a mask
I just want to be free
There's nothing you can do
To stop me now
I refuse to obey
To blindly follow
Naïve and afraid
I refuse to be like everybody else
Heartless and soulless
Just gears and bolts
The people around here will devour your soul
And if you don't fight back
They will take control
I look into your eyes
And see that you are dead inside
You've become a slave to the screen
A slave to the screen
I've got to get out of
This phony land of make believe
This vile place isn't meant for me
Can't go nowhere without a fight
Can't even walk down the street
Without shadows lurking over me
I'm alive and I'm disgusted
By the brain-washed neon lies
Pray to the wasteland
And close your eyes
Exactly what I am
I'm a product of my environment
And a crumbling society
I'm alive and I'm angry
And I want to be heard
I want to take back what was stolen
'cause I'm a product of your broken world
Of your broken world
I refuse to be like everybody else
Heartless and soulless
Just gears and bolts
The people around here will devour your soul
And if you don't fight back
They will take control
Society is a masquerade
And everyone wants to play the game
So you grab your mask that hangs by the front door
And you put it on like all of the days before
Well I don't wanna wear a mask
I just want to be free
There's nothing you can do
To stop me now
I refuse to obey
To blindly follow
Naïve and afraid
I refuse to be like everybody else
Heartless and soulless
Just gears and bolts
The people around here will devour your soul
And if you don't fight back
They will take control
I look into your eyes
And see that you are dead inside
You've become a slave to the screen
A slave to the screen
I've got to get out of
This phony land of make believe
This vile place isn't meant for me
Can't go nowhere without a fight
Can't even walk down the street
Without shadows lurking over me
I'm alive and I'm disgusted
By the brain-washed neon lies
Pray to the wasteland
And close your eyes
