What Makes Me Tick (feat. Andrea Storm Kaden)

As I dust off all these cobwebs I guess it's been some time Since I had my last polish But I've still not lost my shine We've only got one life to waste So why not find more time to play? Where did everyone go? (Oh-oh) Are they hiding? Should I seek 'em? Why am I all alone? (Oh, no) My heart has sprung a leak It must be 'cause it was broke, now I'm sour But the rain is good for the flowers My petals fell and then I felt it click What makes me tick Thought you got off no trouble? I'm ready to pop your bubble 'Cause I'm no toy, but boy, oh boy How bad you had me played I'm fixing the patch up myself No stickin' me back on my shelf This lonely doll is going all Pinocchio insane Gepetto's chains have long enslaved me I cut the strings from which you hanged me Now your pretty puppet isn't so ideal 'Cause all you've ever been enamored with Was a girl who was perfectly inanimate So I faked it, 'til I could make it awfully real Now you wonder where did all the love go? (Oh-oh) Like I'm the one who lost it If it was a puzzle (oh-oh) You'll never be the one to solve it Don't you keep this doll all locked up Playin' house just makes me sick I've been wound up, broken down, but That was how I found out just what makes me tick (tick, tick-) You'd better tell me just how many are there of me? Are you even keepin' count? 'Cause you lied to me, said that I'm unique And now you've sold me out If it's a game and I'm your toy Let me play rough like the boys What you made of? Come and find out When I take all your insides out Forget plastic and silicone They're ineffective next to flesh and bone But when affection's manufactured The byproduct is bloodthirst That's just what a sacrifice is Remember that life is priceless So pick up the knife, you know what to slice (Now no one has to wonder) Where did all the love go? (Oh-oh) I guess I must've lost it 'Cause it can be cutthroat (oh-oh) Especially when it's unwanted Don't you keep this doll all locked up Playin' house just makes me sick I've been wound up, broken down, but That was how I found out just what makes me tick (tick, tick-) Your touch was once so warm, it's gotten colder We don't play anymore, is it just because we're older? You've starved me long enough, I'm hungry for a hug Can't stop my beatin' heart, not even if you pull the plug Where did all the love go? (Oh-oh) We rolled it up and tossed it Wasn't worth the trouble (oh-oh) Not like I was surviving off it When you keep these dolls all locked up Playin' house just makes us sick We've been wound up, broken down, but That was how we found out just what makes us tick (tick, tick-)
