I have a trained mind,walking blind
computer controlled,machines grind
no need for thoughts,no brain has ever fought,no mind that strong,
not strong enough to hold on,no mind like mine,lost on escape nowhere to be found,hidden in the dark afraid of every sound,thoughts a hard process,but i find it no contest,why im so strange ill never know,the only machine with a mind of his own.

Great! Don't worry though, I know how you feel. People look at my weird all the time, think I'm strange and anti-social but who cares? They can say all the mean things about you but it doesn't have to affect you if you don't let it. Kind of reminded me of school routines. I always feel like a robot at school. Doing the same pointless work over and over...and over....and over...
