Prototype Lyrics - Singles - City Sleeps

I made her from pieces of stars 

The ones that fell when you shot through 

A sky that burned not to return 

No other element would do 

Her soul was grown in the bathroom 

Her heart is just a red balloon 

I gave her lips from wild orchids 

When she came out of the cocoon 

Not the real thing 

Not the real thing 

Not the real thing 

I can barely see the sun 

Now it's blue 

I can barely see the sun 

Because she kisses like a prototype 

I programmed her with eye color 

Majestic emerald green 

Uploaded with your attitude 

She will do it like a machine 

But no matter how hard I've tried 

She never smiles unless she's high 

And just like you 

Won't ever stop crying 

Not the real thing 

Not the real thing 

Not the real thing 

I can barely see the sun 

Now it's blue 

I can barely see the sun 

Because she kisses like a prototype 

Kisses like a prototype of you 

Please come back and rescue me from the machines 

And I'll be wondering why you do it with somebody else 

Please come back and rescue me 

And I'll be wandering while you do it with somebody else 

Not the real thing 

Not the real thing 

Not the real thing 

I can barely see the sun 

Now it's blue 

I can barely see the sun 

She's a prototype of you 

I can barely see the sun 

Now it's blue 

I can barely see the sun 

Because she kisses like a prototype 

Kisses like a prototype
