I’m nothing but a machine,
Hearing other’s pain but not my own;
Why should I catch up with y’all?

Frogs croak in the dead of night—
I won’t wait for you to understand,
Thoughts disappear in a flash.

Riding my ‘unwanted’ box,
I float in waters beyond your reach—
How can I land on the moon?

Cities moving like clockwork;
Video chats keep minds in order.
I’m nothing but a machine.
