lyrics

If you look at things closely, they aren’t as they appear.
Violent puppeteers moving in silence.
Have you ever stopped to look behind the curtain?
Do you know what our government did to MLK, Fred Hampton,
the Global South, the labor movement, Gaza, Japan, Iraq?
Christ.

Free isn’t free!
I’m hollow! A vessel, I guess
Something pulls on me, I’m a puppet
Dancing with strings, I love it now
Something pulls on me, jaded and obscene
A jaw with broken teeth

The emperor is dead and nude and his clothes are hung up in the streets
We’ve been playing “Weekend at Bernie’s” with his corpse for decades
Believe it or not, we’ll watch the kingdom rot
We should know by now that all good and bad things come to an end
And with any luck, it’ll come soon.

Free isn’t free!
I’m hollow! A vessel, I guess
Something pulls on me, I’m a puppet
Dancing with strings, I love it now
Something pulls on me, jaded and obscene
A jaw with broken teeth
