How I love to hate the morning sun
And the cheerful voices as they come
To erase my dreams with sordid smiles
How I love to hate the things I've done
Learned to love the things that make me numb
Using earnest words for empty lines
How I'd love to break their telescopes
Girl you'll go so far, I hope
But all those stars are just a joke
How I'd love to feel the love I fake
And make loves to things I hate
My future's bright behind me
(Chorus)
See the dangling puppet
Hanging in the corner
Dancing on the borders
Of my empty stage
As one toy soldier
Gives the order
The puppet lands
And I'll never ever wake again
How I hate to love when others dance
Take a chance, they romance
Their hearts beat one by one
How I hate the words: "Let's have fun"
You're the one
I can only wonder
When it's ever done
How I love to hate playing dumb
None for all
All for fun open arms and itchy thumbs
How I hate to loves the ones I love
Love to hate myself so much
Love to hate me when I love
(Chorus)
See the dangling puppet
Hanging in the corner
Dancing on the borders
Of my empty stage
As one toy soldier
Gives the order
The puppet lands
And I'll never ever wake again
