[Verse 1]
I'm penniless but somehow useful
Tell me where I fit in
You're reaching out for something useful
But you keep caving in
Raised on television screens
Glossy vision like a dream
But it seems that things are not
Hollywood make believe candy coated misery
Swept under the rug

[Pre-Chorus]
Unlock my cage
And set the stage
But not tonight

[Chorus]
They say the good die young
Tunnel vision, no exception
Just use me till I'm done
Tunnel vision, no exception
Lie to me, lie to me
So this puppet can dance now
Mistook your faith for love
And cut my strings on the way out
