Run-through machines,
Now I know what it all means,
Chewed up by a corporate scheme,
Spit out by machines.

Gone are the plans,
Lost my faith in fellow man,
Cheated by another scam,
How could I've been so blind'

Oh, it's so hard to understand,
I can never understand because I'm too close to the situation,
It's hard to understand, and I'm dealing with the contradictions,
It's hard to understand, (hard to understand)
I can never understand.

Under a sleeve,
Hidden knife that made me bleed,
Victim of stupidity,
Duped by a machine.

Oh, it's so hard to understand,
I can never understand because I'm too close to the situation,
It's hard to understand, and I'm dealing with the contradictions,
It's hard to understand, (hard to understand)
I can never understand.

Just because you can't see me, don't mean I don't want no candy,
Just because you can't hear me, don't mean I don't want your money, yeah.

Oh, it's so hard to understand,
I can never understand 'cause I'm too close to the situation,
It's hard to understand, and I'm dealing with the contradictions,
It's hard to understand, (hard to understand)
I can never understand, (never understand)
It's hard to understand, (hard to understand)
I can never understand.

Just because you can't see me, don't mean I don't want no candy.
