Keep Me Lyrics - Singles - The American Culture Experiments

Left to negotiate with no sense of knowing 

When freedom over truth has triumphed 

Free to be lost and disconnected 

Given as much value as free things often are 

Keep me close to you. Don't let me be alone 

Discarded but not overthrown 

I'm useless, yes it's true 

Keep me, fresh and new. Don't make me obsolete 

I still have hands to wash your feet 

My uselessness is you 

I could be worth my weight in labor 

I could be worth my death in favors 

You could monitor my list of things to do 

And you could overlook my anonymous service to you 

The sum of my marketable skills 

My part in the collective will 

Abilities that you would own 

And use in ways I don't condone 

Produce and receive my meal 

Discard me when I fall ill
