Monotony!

I don't want to take a taste of icy cold reality
I have built a shrine to monotony
Are you proud of me

I have built a shrine to monotony
Nine to five is killing me slowly
Don't wanna live a mundane existence
Don't want the calm of repetition

I'm burying myself in dizzy little circles 'til I am sick from the spin
I'm a slave to society; don't wanna be, I want to win

Like a mime stuck in a glass box of cold reality
Only being what you want me to be
Only being what it is that you think that you truly need
Just a mime stuck in a glass box of cold reality

I have built a shrine to monotony
Are you proud of me

I am poisoned by industry
Can somebody help me
I'm at mercy to the bend of the fleshy iron
Can somebody end me

I don't want to be like everybody else
Don't wanna put my dreams on a shelf
And dance to the same beat everyday
Like a robot stuck going only one way

Like a mime stuck in a glass box of cold reality
Only being what you want me to be
Only being what it is that you think that you truly need
Just a mime stuck in a glass box of cold reality

I have built a shrine to monotony
Are you proud of me

Get me out of this damn case of monochrome
I need to be someone I can call my own
I'm going to lose my mind
I cannot be just another mime

Like a mime stuck in a glass box of cold reality
Only being what you want me to be
Only being what it is that you think that you truly need
Just a mime stuck in a glass box of cold reality

I have built a shrine to monotony
Are you proud of me
