String Theocracy

Open the curtains Lights on Don't miss a moment Of this experiment Oh, the book is strange Like clockwork orange Keep your eyes buttered till the end Which "you" are you going to be? Hmm-mmm-mmm Inside the mirror do you see Someone else in that body? Dance for me One and Two and Three and Turn around Sit like a doggy Till I finish my read Cut it off, cut down your loss All that stubborn loyalty is gonna get you killed In a world built on convenient theories For all the puppets on TV There is comfort in the strings If you're gonna control me At least make it interesting theatrically How does it feel to be free? Hm-mm-mm Why don't you try it yourself? The gate opened on me So I leaped Down, down, and down I go I tell myself I'm a tough girl Down, down, and down I go I could never, ever, ever touch the soil My heart goes right My head goes left And end up on your bed Sure, I'll be your marionette Here, tug on my thread Spread me open for dolly pink, snow white artificial beauty Maybe we're all cold machines Stuffed in the human skin With human sins Sewed up by the gods of city Cut it off, you've already lost All that precious bravery is gonna get you hurt In a world that feeds on the minority May that self-centered belief lead you to peace If you're gonna replace me At least have the audacity to kill me thoroughly When does it end for me? Hm-mm-mm I think I am done with everything Now I'm ready to leave Dragging out One line Two lines Three lines Connect our hands When I no longer can live on knowledge alone (You give me strength) Hopeful curiosity (Maybe there are still happy answers left for my discovery) What's the color of the electric sheep you see? And if you love me Can you love your everything too, for me?
