Cinderella
“Pull your eyes down from the stars” He said
“Take off your shoes of glass
Take the ribbon off of your heart
And listen” is all he asked
I dance around
I paint the town
The clock struck 12 and here I am still in my gown
Cinderella, Cinderella, Cinderella, Cinderella
“You’re running out of time” He said
“Soon you’ll be walking on glass
I wont pry the shards from your feet
You better wake up if you want us to last”
I dance around
I paint the town
The clock struck 12 and here I am still in my gown
Cinderella, Cinderella, Cinderella, Cinderella

Planet Glitter
They said "your planet's got no gravity
You're floating through space
You'll be squished back to size
When the weight of the earth
Has you in its brace."
It's all about cosmic rays, and planetary phase, and the international space station
Supernovas, and an old moon rover, and the pillars of creation
They say you... "live on another planet"
Planet Glitter sparkles even where there is no light
Planet Glitter glows and spins and feeds your heart with life
Planet Glitter is the lustre in your skin
The whispers are insisting the charade is wearing thin
All I hear is...
They said, "You think you're the life on Europa
Smell the roses god damn it
How can you look at me and smile
Like you're not affected by our planet?"
I said, "we're microcosms in a macrocosm
There's so much more to see
Fear is pollution cosmic inflation is the key"
It's all about cosmic rays, and planetary phase, and the international space station
Supernovas, and an old moon rover, and the pillars of creation
They say you... "live on another planet"
Planet Glitter sparkles even where there is no light
Planet Glitter glows and spins and feeds your heart with life
Planet Glitter is the lustre in your skin
The whispers are insisting the charade is wearing thin
All I hear is...

Puppets
Imagine we’re puppets on a stage
Puzzle pieces in a play
Thinking we are wise
Like Superheroes of the Milky Way
Tick tock tick tock
Racing cycles on a steady clock
Imagine we’re drawn by strings
Sticking to a plan
Fixed to cycles of numbers
Obeying The Eternal Hands
Tick tock tick tock
Racing cycles on a steady clock
Tick tock tick tock
Racing Cycles on a steady Clock
Imagine we’re addicted
Bathing in honor and pride
With painted features
We are taken for a ride,
Tick tock tick tock
Racing Cycles on a steady clock
Tick tock tick tock
Racing Cycles on a steady clock
Tick tock tick tock…
