you took your bags and walked into my head

you sing up there you dance when i'm in bed

i've tried to ask "please sleep at night"

you laugh at me instead

i've tried explaining you don't understand

you gesture with your holographic hand

"i'm built of smoke" you say "i'm fake you made me

you bred me bore me fed me housed me paid me

adore me adore me

adore me adore me

adore me adore me

adore me adore me"

the real of you is sweet sufficient bright

i know he's normal when he's in my sight

but when he goes away he grows

more beautiful and right

"i'm built of smoke" you say "i'm fake you made me

you bred me bore me fed me housed me paid me

i'm everything you wish that he could be

you've never needed him you've needed me"

i took you for a sympathetic find

if i was wrong i can't make up my mind

i don't think i'm a fool you know

i'd rather think i'm blind

"i'm built of smoke" you say "i'm fake you made me

you bred me bore me fed me housed me paid me

adore me adore me

adore me adore me

adore me adore me

adore me adore me

adore me adore me

adore me adore me

adore me adore me

adore me adore me"
