lyrics

VERSE 1:

It's not that difficult and you do it every day
You're a product of ideas and the thoughts you'd never say
And the strings on a puppet are much thinner than you think
If my heavy head will float then tell me what exactly will sink?

A dog and a young girl have had you made, you pull all the switches but you're afraid
A kind like you is dreadful but you still go by the wonderful

Thinking I'm okay, is my obvious mistake
I'm a dirty sponge that needs a squeeze I'll give but I wont take

CHORUS 1:

Caught inside,
The curtain that you're hiding

DIALOGUE:

"But Ego is never the master of self, for we are constantly bedevilled by powerful unconscious forces in our being. David obviously has little sense of his own identity"

VERSE 2:

Lock me out or let me in
If I had a better name for it I still could never win
And I know I won't think of it so I fake it every time
I've got nothing against nature but I'd still call it a crime

But you hate it, I fake it, its never the same
I'll never have a costume to blame
I'm not one for excuses but for you I'll make excuses and

Lie to me every day, you know no other way
I'm a dirty sponge that needs a squeeze just tell me I'm okay

CHORUS 2:

Caught inside,
The curtain that you hide behind
Your eyes can't lie
There's nothing you wont seem to try
