The Void Inside

I’m a cog in the emptiness machine,

Turning wheels for a world unseen.

Built to break, programmed to obey,

But the cracks are showing, I’m done today.

Tear me down, rebuild me wrong,

Scream my silence, I don’t belong.

The void inside, it grows and screams,

I won’t be fuel for your broken dreams.

They sold us hope in a plastic shell,

Labeled freedom, but it feels like hell.

Wires tighten, pulling at my mind,

But I’ll snap the chains they left behind.

Rip the wires, burn the code,

Crush the weight of this heavy load.

They want control, but I want fire,

Let it burn through their empire.

I’m the glitch in your perfect plan,

A shattered piece of who I am.

The void inside, it’s mine to own,

No more machine, I’ll stand alone.
