[Verse 1]

So drink your fire to stay afloat

Watch the needle stab as you begin to bloat

An unreachable itch that keeps on tearing

The staple of our bearing

And you’re so mechanical

[Verse 2]

So burn down bridges to act the part

Lucid dreaming to help you start

The sweet embrace of attention

Hollow unfounded indignation

And you’re so mechanical

[Bridge]

All the while we watch and wait

Laughing as they meet their fate

The eyes of millions, newfound burden

Smothered beneath their velvet curtain
