Controller.Controller – Silent Seven

so if we're good, this means of course,
that things can only go wrong.
and what's that, like, the law of averages?
it's like a natural rhythm, and we knew it all along.

but does that make it better?
this awareness, will it set our minds at ease tonight?
if we accept it, does that make it alright? will that make it better?
if we allow it, do you think we'll get some sleep tonight?
we should face it, that will make it all right.

you hid your cameras behind the tv screen.
that's not paranoia, just a faith in machines.
i know you know that i know you're watching me.
"i always feel like somebody's watching me."
but does that make it better?
this awareness, will it set our minds at ease tonight?
if we accept it, does that make it alright? will that make it better?
if we allow it, do you think we'll get some sleep tonight?
we should face it, that will make it all right.

(if things can go wrong, they'll only go wrong.
if things can go wrong, then things will go wrong.
if things can go wrong, they'll only go wrong.
if things must go wrong, then things must go wrong.)

what are we here for? we know what we're in for.
why do we keep coming around?
i'm tied to your mind.
can you read my thoughts?
"i'm dumbing you down, i'm dumbing you down."
