lyrics

I, Object

verse:
Locked in a keyless cell of flesh
with wardens who couldn't care
They watch me with their judging eyes
that can't see the pain in my heart
because I am worth far less
than the sum of my all parts
They repeat that I am blessed
salivating to taste my flesh

chorus:
I, object
Anatomy without autonomy
I, object
A shell with no agency
I, object
A body with no humanity
I, object
A corpse with no identity

verse
But the secret they will not say
is that I was never somebody
they prod me with their stethescopes
Count the days until I'm not me
Livestock until spent of essence
Put on the meat hook for slaughter
A faceless tool of construction
A pawn for others' desire

verse:
Born in a hollow cage of bone
two windows to a broken world
twelve hundred cubic centimetres
Is all the freedom I will know
I am locked in a butcher shop
And everybody wants their cut
For I am an object of flesh
Less a human than a womb
