[Verse 1]

He

Wakes up

A machine

Starting up

He

Stands up

Exhausted from his dreams

Broken up

Can't

Start up

A world with normal things

Meaning nothing

He

Wakes up

Coiled like a spring

Twisted up

[Bridge]

And he cannot

Attract attention

’Cause it will leave

Him too wound up

And that

Kind of frustration

Is too much

It's too much

[Verse 2]

So look

Don't touch

Look at the machine

Burning up

So

Distraught

He’s shaking on a string

Breaking up

But who's

Pulling on the strings?

Why make a machine

Designed for nothing?

Yeah, why

Start up a machine?

Tell it what it needs

And send it down a dead-end road?

[Outro]

Send it down a dead-end road?

Send it down a dead-end road?

Send it down a dead-end road?
