lyrics

The night it closed its eyes, the morning crept inside
Sing goodbye to the lullaby, you took it right from a stranger
Kiss the plastic mouth you’d feel nothing without
When you’re finished take a bow
You took it right from a stranger

She prayed to the bureaucrat who held onto the privilege
And refused to give it back, come on and beg for it first

Until you know all the solutions for everyday problems will fall all around you
Until you know won’t find a reason for black ties and treason, sandpaper your thoughts then
Until you know they’ve already begun to hold onto your freedom unless they gave you none
Until you know the only way to go repeat what we say you repeat what we say

So kiss the plastic mouth you’d feel nothing without
When you’re finished take a bow
You took it right from a stranger
