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
