When I lost my faith in people I put my trust in things To avoid the disappointment Trusting people brings What trust in people brings What I've brought myself What I've brought to others When they hoped for someone else I tried to do it all myself then Surrounded by my stuff All I found were limitations I could not rise above There are gadgets and contraptions Immaculate machines There's a program you can download now That will even dream your dreams It'll even dream your dreams For a monthly fee Clear up your complexion You get a hundred hours free Possessions cannot save you The way somebody can When I learned to care for others Then the boy became a man When I lost my faith in people I lost everything Though I lose my independence I am a freer man
