Lyrics
Phones buzzing on the table like downed bees
Put 'em in ziplock bags, pull out the batteries
Beige walls, white carpet to match the extremities
It gives a sense of order, cleanliness to the families
A love that's barely hanging on
Thin and breakable like spider silk
You point your feet at the door, you got that liar's tilt
Your "truth" is threaded like razor-wire, but shallow as cellophane
Wrapped tight around your mouth, you can barely
Don't step in the wrong spot
You will get caught
When you step in the sweatbox
They'll make you talk
But it's of no consequence
There's nothing you can say that is relevant
You can take my life, but I'll live again
A thousand deaths that I have left to give
A thousand deaths that I have left
'Cause I am the drone
Opting out of the hive
I am the shock
That's kept you alive
I am the drone
Opting out of the hive
Your consciousness has been colonized
I am the drone
Opting out of the hive
I am the shock
That's kept you alive
I am the drone
Opting out of the, hive
Your consciousness has been colonized
A pantry moth that never leaves
Hiding in the seams
Spaces in between
What you are, and what you pretend to be
Walls closing in
The room is windowless
They make it like that on purpose
You flop like a dead fish
Evil lurks within the plainest surfaces
A failed experiment
The conversation is strict
But the motive's in doubt
The past is frozen in ice
While the present bleeds out
Don't be afraid of the silence
Let it hang out
An apostle talking about kings
Let it ring
I am the drone
Opting out of the hive
I am the shock
That's kept you alive
I am the, drone
Opting out of the hive
Your consciousness has been colonized
I am the, drone
Opting out of the hive
I am the shock
That's kept you alive
I am the, drone
Opting out of the, hive
Your consciousness has been colonized
Tick, tick, tick, tick
Tick, tick, tick, tick
Tick, tick, tick, tick
Tick, tick, tick, tick
Tick, tick, tick, tick
Tick, tick, tick, boom
I am the main character
I am the player and the narrator
I'm the symbolic and the actual
I am the rabbit swallowed whole
I am spores consuming this city
I am cancer that shows no pity
I am the monster's final form
I am exactly what you aren't
I am the drone
Opting out of the hive
I am the drone
Opting out of the hive
I am the drone
Opting out of the hive
I am the drone
Opting out of the
Hive
