Can't you think for yourself?
Have you disarranged the atoms in your head?
Don't they already move for themselves?
Shouldn't you be moving for yourself?

You should get used to hearing yourself,
because that's the only voice you'll hear someday,
Don't let that point over your head, it's all overΒ Β your face,
Don't buy others words because the price is for you to pay.

Put their words in your mouth, how does that taste?
Pick the flavor you want, you're not getting a second plate.
Everybody's in line, pick while you're still at the front.
Shut everybody down like it's a public stunt.

So enclose your thoughts in quotation marks;
Keep them in one of the chambers of your heart,
and you'll hear them again like an undying song,
And it will be flared to the skies from ages on.
