A Piece Of String Lyrics

Clock Opera A Piece Of String

You have set me free
From analysing dreams
And taking seat too long
I love you right and wrong

So draw the strings enough
To stand this story up
And keep them tight and strong
And love me right and wrong

Because if you fall I will fall
From a height immeasurable

I will be your beat
When you stand upon my feet
And flatten out my frown
And love me up and down

Smiles are fixed on cheeks
When you take control of me
Come on let's take up slack and strain
And I will love your every plane

Because if you fall I will fall
From a height immeasurable

And if you sleep then I will sleep
Through midwinter til our shadows dance again

Oh I don't know why
You teach me wrong from right
Oh I don't know how
You show me up from down

Oh I don't know why
You teach me black from white
Oh I don't know how
You turn me inside out

You've got me dangling on a piece of string
