[Verse 1]

I fill my cup with an insatiable swell

I draw my water from a virtual well

Yes, I’m dying of thirst

But it doesn’t taste so bad

[Pre-Chorus 1]

I dreamed my family took a trip on a boat

Treacherous creatures began stirring below

And as the ship went down

I began to shout, “But what about my phone?”

I woke up singing, "Come on, baby"

[Chorus]

Hold me like a straitjacket

Control me like a maniac

I wanna taste the kiss of your digital bliss

I say I’m leaving, but you

Know me so much better than that

Sh-sh-show me anything except for

What’s directly in front of me

[Verse 2]

The world keeps spinning round in spite of ourselves

You’ll find us dangling in our virtual cells

Bathing in perspectives

Each of them reflective of our own

[Pre-Chorus 2]

No matter how hard you try, you just can’t hide from yourself

You maliciously carouse inside of an anonymous hell

But when your ship goes down

You’ll be stuck with the sounds of words buried in your throat

They won’t stop singing, "Come on, baby

Touch me, baby

Squeeze me, baby"

[Chorus]

Hold me like a straitjacket

Control me like a maniac

I wanna taste the kiss of your digital bliss

I say I’m leaving, but you

Know me so much better than that

Sh-sh-show me anything except for

What’s directly in front of me

[Pre-Chorus 3]

The bombs are falling, we'll go back to the land

Mourning the ghosts we once tattooed to our hands

And with a final bow

I'll shout that this never was my home

I'll go out screaming, "Come on, baby"

[Chorus]

Hold me like a straitjacket

Control me like a maniac

I wanna taste the kiss of your digital bliss

I say I’m leaving but you

Know me so much better than that-that-that-that-that

[Pre-Chorus 4]

Unfold me like a blanket and lay me in your lap

Mold me in the image of a doormat

I’m longing for the fix of your tentacle grip

And don't you ever let me go, don’t let me go

Let me go, please

[Chorus]

Hold me like a straitjacket

Control me like a maniac

I wanna taste the kiss of your digital bliss

I say I’m leaving, but you

Know me so much better than that

[Bridge]

Console me, indulge me

Atone me, or dispose of me

Show me anything except for what’s directly affecting me

I can’t sit here pretending that I’m impressed with reality

It's nothing personal, no it's much, much worse

I just know there’s something better than this

[Chorus/Outro]

Hold me like a straitjacket

Control me like a maniac

I wanna taste the kiss of your digital bliss

I say I’m leaving, but you know me
