Verse 1

At the sound of the bell

 you will fall fast asleep

Let the sound of my voice

 help you never repeat

All the things that you've

done all the people

 you've harmed

Just surrender sweet

sweetness surrender

When the curtains go crash

 and the knees start to bend

When the filaments burst

 and there's no light to lead

You to anywhere useful

you're severed there

All skin on skin left

severed and sucking the wind

Chorus

Marionettes

 How they dangle on

 strings yet

 they never forget

I can't take anymore

 I'm over it now

 I can't take

 anymore Anymore

Verse 2

At the camera's collapse

 you will feign deep respect

Let the flash of your past

 help you never forget

All the things that you're not

 All the people you failed

to remember or return to sender

When there's nowhere but

black and the sharks creeping in

When you're weathered and

torn from the weakest of things

 Like the loose-leaf parade

 or the rain on electrical wires

 Such electrical lives that we

lead I promise that I'll

never leave you alone

(Repeat chorus)

Bridge

Never tasted better

 when you tried to let go

Never tasted better

 when you tried to let go

Never tasted better

 when you tried to let go

Never tasted better

 when you tried to let

tried to let go
