On a string I was held. The way I move, can you tell?

My actions are orchestrated from above. So I swing and I sway.

Wave my hand. Kick my leg. And it is always right with the music.

"Until all that swinging starts to make you sick"

(repeat above)

For a song I was bought. Now I lie when I talk with a careful eye on the cue card.

Onto a stage, I was pushed with my sorrow well rehearsed.

So give me all your pity and your money. Now.

"We used to think that sound was something pure"

placed,

then, I could tell you the truth like I used to and not be afraid of

Now all that anyone is listening for are the mistakes.

In a house, by myself, I hear the ice start to melt and watch rooftops weep for the sunlight.

Now my door stands open. I am inviting everyone in. We will drink.

We will laugh until the morning comes. That is what we are going to do.
