City Sleeps Prototype Lyrics

Prototype Lyrics

I made her from pieces of stars

The ones that fell when you shot through

A sky that burned not to return

No other element would do



Her soul was grown in the bathroom

Her heart is just a red balloon

I gave her lips from wild orchids

When she came out of the cocoon



Not the real thing

Not the real thing

Not the real thing



I can barely see the sun

Now it's blue

I can barely see the sun

Because she kisses like a prototype



I programmed her with eye color

Majestic emerald green

Uploaded with your attitude

She will do it like a machine



But no matter how hard I've tried

She never smiles unless she's high

And just like you

Won't ever stop crying



Not the real thing

Not the real thing

Not the real thing



I can barely see the sun

Now it's blue

I can barely see the sun

Because she kisses like a prototype

Kisses like a prototype of you



Please come back and rescue me from the machines

And I'll be wondering why you do it with somebody else

Please come back and rescue me

And I'll be wandering while you do it with somebody else



Not the real thing

Not the real thing

Not the real thing



I can barely see the sun

Now it's blue

I can barely see the sun

She's a prototype of you



I can barely see the sun

Now it's blue

I can barely see the sun

Because she kisses like a prototype

Kisses like a prototype
