Machine Dependent
Breaking the Chains: Unmasking the Illusion of Specialness
Lyrics
Growing up subjected to completely broken parenting methods
Growing up under dysfunctional parenting methods.
Thinking you were special, given participation medals
Believing in one's uniqueness due to receiving participation medals.
Thrown into the real world and quickly realise that you're not fucking special and were told a pack of lies
Realizing the falsehood of being special, facing the harsh realities of life.
Life is war, life is pain
Life is described as a constant struggle and pain.
Tension rising high, your health is in decline, your futures on the line
Experiencing elevated stress, declining health, and a jeopardized future.
Desire to be free, complete catastrophe, living in agony
Yearning for freedom but living in chaos and agony.
Tension rising high, your health is in decline, your futures on the line
Reiterating the challenges and pressures mentioned in lines 5 and 6.
Easily affected, discontented, Machine Dependent
Vulnerability to external influences and dissatisfaction, emphasizing dependence on technology.
I can feel the fear inside your head, you're in a state of constant dread
Sensing fear in one's thoughts, trapped in a perpetual state of anxiety.
Eyes are blinded by the blue light, walking around like the undead
Blinded by the screens, resembling a lifeless existence.
But still you want more, such a desperate need to boost the credit score
Despite challenges, a desperate desire to improve one's credit score and social standing.
Where's the social approval that you're looking for?
Questioning the search for social approval and validation.
Life is war, life is pain
Reiteration of life being a continuous struggle filled with pain.
Tension rising high, your health is in decline, your futures on the line
Repeating the theme of heightened tension, declining health, and a jeopardized future.
Desire to be free, complete catastrophe, living in agony
Expressing a strong desire for freedom amidst ongoing agony.
Tension rising high, your health is in decline, your futures on the line
Reemphasizing the challenges and pressures mentioned in lines 14 and 15.
Easily affected, discontented, Machine Dependent
Highlighting susceptibility to external influences and ongoing discontent, reinforcing machine dependence.
Constant engagement with your comforting machine
Regular interaction with comforting technological devices.
Temporary relief fuelled by hits of dopamine
Seeking temporary relief through dopamine-inducing activities.
An angry voice inside that is screaming at you
An internal voice criticizing and labeling the individual as a loser.
That you're a fucking loser, this you'll never get through
Expressing the belief that overcoming challenges seems impossible.
On the outside just fine, inside your dying, aching feeling within
Externally appearing fine while internally experiencing a sense of decay and pain.
Each time you're feeling the state of disconcertion
Experiencing a state of confusion or discomfort.
Temporarily relieve your symptoms
Temporary relief from symptoms during moments of disconcertion.
Tension rising high, your health is in decline, your futures on the line
Reiteration of the recurring theme of tension, declining health, and a jeopardized future.
Desire to be free, complete catastrophe, living in agony
Repeating the desire for freedom amidst ongoing agony.
Tension rising high, your health is in decline, your futures on the line
Reemphasizing the challenges and pressures mentioned in lines 25 and 26.
Easily affected, discontented, Machine Dependent
Underlining susceptibility to external influences and persistent discontent, reaffirming machine dependence.
