Stepping along the home of the sidewalk
A Marionettist slave
Your legs are wood and tied to the city
Who has final say

It's hard to hug the girders my brother
It's hard to swing and walk
With your tempo one beat less than the others
Are three times more at fault

I don't know why, don't know why
I don't know why you stay
Yeah I don't know why, don't know why
I don't know why you stay

If your silver wing is stuck on horizons
Catch it when it goes
Or to take a piece, pull back the curtains
And there's nothing left but your clothes

I don't know why, don't know why
I don't know why you stay
Yeah I don't know why, don't know why
I don't know why you stay

Know...
Know...
(instrumental bridge)
(guitar kicks in)

The strings, the wire, you move to Geppeto
The day, the hourglass
This match made was made in a moment
But now that moment's past

I don't know why, don't know why
I don't know why you stay
Yeah I don't know why, don't know why
I don't know why you stay
No I don't know why, don't know why
I don't know why you stay
Yeah I don't know why, don't know why
I don't know why you stay...

Know...
Know...
