"leave me alone" i'm screaming
can't you see i'm dreaming
living a lie, the truth is dying
peace and love there's no use trying

gripping the truth has left you scarred
purity of your soul has been marred

believing the worst, hoping for the best
a fucking waste of time, it's time to leave the nest
believing the worst, hoping for the best
a fucking waste of time, it's time to leave the nest

you must learn responsibility
to destroy your creativity

your identity has become a number
forget your name, learn your number
your identity has become a number
forget your name, learn your number

move like a robot, move like a rerun
forget about the past, forget about fun
yesterday is beginning to look like today
time has passed you by and now you are gray

ride the subway like sheep the slaughterhouse
used to be a lion but now you are a mouse

the light in your eyes is gone
you don't even know what's going on
the light in your eyes is gone
you don't even know what's going on

your identity has become a number
forget your name, learn your number
your identity has become a number
forget your name, learn your number
