Rules

Rules
You say you know love,
but you are just
reflecting words you hear
No iron in your veins
to give you any sense
of pain or fear

It's just another lie,
it's just another
calculation
And when the power's
out, we're just
another old sensation
This blood keeps me
alive, but what is it
that runs through you?
Electricity and wires,
dictating everything you do.
You tell me that you hear
me and all your memories
are real,
But how do I know you
don't just feel what
you've been told to feel?
We run around the rules,
We run around the rules,
We run around the rules,
Round and round,
two by two, we run
around the rules
There's water in your eyes
and I know I'm the reason
that it's there,
But still I don't feel
bad because I know it's
you are more a spare
And just behind your
eyes are switches that
can turn back on

To clear away today
'till all your memories
are gone
We run around the rules,
We run around the rules,
We run around the rules,
Round and round,
two by two, we run
around the rules
We run around the rules,
We run around the rules,
We run around the rules,
We run around the rules,
Round and round,
two by two, we run
around the rules
