electronics have tails

electronics have tails
they cry when you pull on them
i draw on my hands when you look away
i drew a robot that erases yesterdays
in my dream it used the worlds love as fuel
and it was powered by a magic jewel
it fought the monster with sci-fi weapons
the monster died and went to heaven

electronics still have tails
they cry when you step on them
they can get so mad that they level a city
we watch from afar—i tell you that the fire is pretty
you turn to me and say thats not funny
i saw a vision of living money
you wake me from my dreamlike state
i cant forget your devil face

electronics dont have tails
they dont chase them in a loop
they dont do the same thing every day
and hope that someday something changes
i turn the pillow over and find a note
the writing looks like some you wrote
electric chair and table too
i wished i couldve sat with you
