I was already wholly free
Till I screwed up with destiny
Then she told me so angrily
I’m such a slave to myself
And I’m swaying on a string, and I’m swaying on a string
Sad mannequins parade in easy times
Attaching beliefs deep within our minds
Carefully crafting discrete disguise
Freedom my friend waves a one hand goodbye
Lonely suburban blues
Losing the flames of our youth
Burning and I don’t why
We all have reasons to shine
I keep swaying on the strings, I keep swaying on the strings
I keep swaying on the strings, I keep swaying on the strings
Swinging, swaying on the strings, Swinging, swaying on the strings
Swinging, swaying on the strings, Swinging, swaying on the strings
I was already wholly free
People like me are easy to fool
I am already wholly free
I’m cutting the strings I never knew I pulled my whole life through
