"If-Then Statements" lyrics

Blue screen warning
Retinas flickering
Hooked up to a system, with syntax I can't read
A different language baked into my blood and burned in code
Symptoms reoccurring

I am an amalgamation
Every person adding their own string
This puppet's pulled by "if-then" statements
Buried somewhere, still controlling me

Strings of DNA and serpent tongue
Re-run the programs I've become
Consequence in hiding
Try to override the data
Trigger other functions on the way
Plaything's tired of fighting

I am an amalgamation
Every admin adding their own string
This puppet's pulled by "if-then" statements
Buried somewhere, still controlling me

If the subject is "x" within overload
Sometimes protocol takes a bit to show
Being free comes with it's own strings ya know
Strings and helix of one genetic code

I am an amalgamation
Every copy adding their own
This puppet's pulled by "if-then" statements
Buried somewhere, still controlling
