[Verse 1]
always seem to hide from life
too afraid to live
can't win worth a shit
everything feels rigged
make a habit of losing and call it a heros journey
invite them to the viewing of your hopes and dreams gone early
they made this version of you
a modern day Frankenstein
took your heart, killed your pride
a corporate monster by design
then they scorn you for what you have become
your lack of heart, soul, and what makes you human
[Chorus]
they changed a corporate victim into a modern day villain.
you give and you give
and they take and they take
they ignore your success and pick apart your mistakes
you're just another corporate victim turned into a modern day villain
[Verse 2]
you wish someone told you how this machine would feed on your dreams
and on how it tosses you aside when you have nothing left to give
your time is the currency you use to pay this hungry beast that feeds on you every day
it bleeds you dry of the seconds, minutes, and hours you use to live your life, just another price you pay
your family grows older with the minutes you use to pay until one day they're gone and you realize too late
[Chorus]
they changed a corporate victim into a modern day villain.
you give and you give
and they take and they take
they ignore your success and pick apart your mistakes
you're just another corporate victim turned into a modern day villain
