Scarlet Daydream - Protocol Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Crystal screens reflect what they think I am
Binary choices shape my master plan
They took my clicks and likes, made me their design
Now my thoughts ain't mine, they're just data lines

[Chorus]
They're in my head, they know me better than I do
Every search I make, they see right through
Delete my history, but the ghost remains
My digital soul's caught in their data chains
F*ck what they made of me
Not what I'm meant to be

[Verse 2]
School days online, they watched me grow
Building profiles I didn't even know
Now my teenage dreams are corporate schemes
Sold to highest bids in data streams
Can't trust my feed, can't trust my eyes
Everything I see is built on lies

[Bridge]
Breaking down my code
Piece by piece, they wrote
My story for me
Now who the f*ck am I supposed to be?

[Chorus]
They're in my head, they know me better than I do
Every search I make, they see right through
Delete my history, but the ghost remains
My digital soul's caught in their data chains
F*ck what they made of me
Not what I'm meant to be

[Verse 3]
Deleted posts still haunt these halls
Echo through these digital walls
They stripped me bare, took every part
Turned my life into their art
Now I'm drowning in their waves of control
Lost myself in their digital hold

[Outro]
Watch me fade into their perfect design
Another ghost in their machine sublime
But I'm still here, beneath the screen
More than what their algorithms dream
More than what they think they see
More than what they made of me
