Switched On
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Forget all that you know.
It's all staged, all part of the show.
Give me something new.
Leave me black and blue.
Forget all that you know.
It's all staged, all part of the show.
Give me something new.
Leave me black and blue.
Regret all that you've seen.
Push buttons on a human machine.
Hurt me, it's been too long.
Get it, got it, gone.
Repress all that you feel.
Life's the cards and death is the deal.
Tell me what I need.
Cut me cause I can't bleed.
Return all that you take.
Make the screens go bright and then blank.
Save me, I want you to.
End this, end it, soon.
You wouldn't do it if you know what I mean.
Push buttons on a human machine.
You wouldn't say it if you see what I've seen.
A set stage where we all act free.
You wouldn't want it if you took what I take.
Stripped down we all look fake.
You wouldn't get it if you go where I've gone.
We are all switched on.
Let go of everything.
Cross the wires like the needles sting.
It's time to turn me on,
Till I come undone.
Stand back. Close your eyes.
See in numbers and speak in lies.
Save me, I want you to.
End this, end it, soon.
You wouldn't do it if you know what I mean.
Push buttons on a human machine.
You wouldn't say it if you see what I've seen.
A set stage where we all act free.
You wouldn't want it if you took what I take.
Stripped down we all look fake.
You wouldn't get it if you go where I've gone.
We are all switched on.
Try, tried everything but it's all been wrong.
Got, got all the circuits, but all the circuits are blown.
So now all the pieces, all the pieces fit.
Become the machine and the scales will tip.
Good god the feelings gone and it leaves me sick.
See I didn't used to, didn't used to tick.
And we stay when the roof caves in.
Innocent, I won't let you in.
You should go, or it all comes down.
We are all, we are all switched on.
And we stay when the roof caves in.
Innocent, I won't let you in.
You should go, or it all comes down.
We are all, we are all switched on.
