Hacked From The Inside

Am I not still

Did you not animate me

Are you electronic

Burning out, buzzing in

The keycard to my heart

Is fried, no longer reading properly

I’ve been fooled too many times

Hacked by anything with a pulse

Now, I have none

Plug and unplugged

My soul spins the same

Records for the searching

Lines for the down and distraught

Currents whiz through my head

And I write them down

Maybe I’ll distract myself

From the knife inserted in my throat

Desperate to destroy the wiring

That makes my rebellion so hard wired
