lyrics

hello Miss Simon
what did you say the other day ?
we're all in danger
of being unoriginal
you know miss simon
I don't think you're far from the truth
from where I'm standing
we're all just carbon copies
puppets on a DNA stage
influentially incestuous

Simon says
Miss Simon says
come away this twilight
do what I say
do what I say
drop your mask and follow
Simon says
Miss Simon says
only you could have the power to possess the moment
to leave the forgeries behind you

pieces – picking up what I have
choices – all the paths that I get
voices – calling out at every corner
nothing new inside my head
puppets made of flesh and bone
everything incestuous

Simon says
Miss Simon says
come away this twilight
do what I say
do what I say
drop your mask and follow
Simon says
Miss Simon says
only you could have the power to possess the moment
and leave the forgeries behind you

you know my friend that I bleed just the same as you
portraits of the ones you love on sale for you
and maybe it's not time to travel far from home
take comfort in the fact that you're not alone – you're not alone

Simon says
Miss Simon says…
