Lyrics

It's hidden far away
But someday I may tell
The tale of metal tangle
When into your world I fell
Without you now I wander soaking
Secretly afraid
But in your grasp the fears don't last
Though some of them have stayed

I wheeled around because i
Didn't hear what you had said
And saw you dancing with elihu
Up on leemor's bed
And I was foggy, rather groggy
You helped me to my car
The binding belt enclosing me
A sample in a jar

And on the market stands unfolding
With all their willies and their wares
I shuffle by alert but numb
To all the glances and the glares

And I think of you unheeding
All the times I raise my cup
It's now I know that you knew that
I'd soon end up end up

I wheeled around because i
Didn't hear what you had said
And saw you dancing with elihu
Up on leemor's bed
And I was foggy, rather groggy
You helped me to my car
The binding belt enclosing me
A sample in a jar

You tricked me like the others

And now I don't belong

The simple smiles and good times seem all wrong
