The Great Emasculation

[Verse 1]

I now pronounce you man and life

Without the bones that kept you sagging like a sack of skin

A trash bag full of fluid that the man

You used to be is drowning in

The roles reversed, we got confused

Lost track of who we were

Thought humility meant to be castrated

Thought self-sacrifice meant losing all we were to her


[Chorus]

Hey, can someone say to me

"Love feels like freedom and not like slavery?"

Hey, can someone say to me

"Love feels like freedom and not like slavery?"

Hey, I'm breaking down

Pieces of me getting lost in the cracks of her ground

And I thought a lot about being a robot

Thought a lot about being a robot

Thought a lot about being a robot

But I don't wanna be alone


[Verse 2]

Used to be a guy with big dreams

And brains inside my head

Now I'm licking boots instead of washing feet

Now the man I was is dead

It's a lot of work when two people connect

Thought love was a beautiful thing

But it feels like a shackle around my neck

Feels a lot like suffocating


[Chorus]

Hey, can someone say to me

"Love feels like freedom and not like slavery?"

Hey, can someone say to me

"Love feels like freedom and not like slavery?"

Hey, I'm breaking down

Pieces of me getting lost in the cracks of her ground

And I thought a lot about being a robot

Thought a lot about being a robot

Thought a lot about being a robot

But I don't wanna be alone


[Instrumental Bridge]


[Chorus]

Hey, can someone say to me

"Love feels like freedom and not like slavery?"

Hey, can someone say to me

"Love feels like freedom and not like slavery?"

Hey, I'm breaking down

Pieces of me getting lost in the cracks of her ground

And I thought a lot about being a robot

Thought a lot about being a robot

Thought a lot about being a robot

But I don't wanna be alone
