Cellular Breakup


A device with evil mechanism sits next to me

It has the power to control my feelings

With every button there’s a portion of a curse

But it’s only a tool in your master plan

Through the screen you portray your plot

Held to my ear, the steps are implanted

With each ring, I become more seduced

Your scheme is so careful, check before send

I’m so close to giving in, but not quite yet

This technology just isn’t enough

Your malice is too thick for the antennae to receive

You resort to your presence, the most deadly attack

I can now see the anger

I can now feel the rage

You can now smell my fear

You can now taste my defeat

In your mind, the only way to be happy is through pain

You must rid yourself from any hindrance

I’ve gotten too close; you glimpsed what happiness should be

I saw it in your smile and heard it in your laugh

It was there, but it has to go, we have to go, I have to go
