who's idea was this?

pick a rut and stick to it

#nothing changes

creating our own monsters

maybe we need them

lyrics

Plastic People

Plastic people
Blowing away at the first sign of rain
I know you’re happy
Maybe that means it’s time to change

The puppeteer’s stare
Says, Don’t you dare
To do what you think you should do,
And I protest,
I gave the best
That I could with what I knew

And I’ll strike down
With the force of a thousand suns

Plastic people
Melting down at the first flick of flame
Giving smoke off
Maybe that means we hurt the same

And the skies have turned grey
The altar gives way
Your god has lost his allure
They tell themselves
They’ve done too well
To call themselves impure

And I’ll strike down
With the force of a thousand suns

And we’ll never get clear
While we’re scared of the dark
We had nothing to fear
But fear from the start
