Shaking On A String

Nathan Joseph White

[Verse 1]
He
Wakes up
A machine
Starting up

He
Stands up
Exhausted from his dreams
Broken up

Can't
Start up
A world with normal things
Meaning nothing

He
Wakes up
Coiled like a spring
Twisted up

[Bridge]
And he cannot
Attract attention
’Cause it will leave
Him too wound up

And that
Kind of frustration
Is too much
It's too much

[Verse 2]
So look
Don't touch
Look at the machine
Burning up

So
Distraught
He’s shaking on a string
Breaking up

But who's
Pulling on the strings?
Why make a machine
Designed for nothing?

Yeah, why
Start up a machine?
Tell it what it needs
And send it down a dead-end road?

[Outro]
Send it down a dead-end road?
Send it down a dead-end road?
Send it down a dead-end road?
