You Are Free and I Am Not Tamed

You are free. And I`m not tamed. I`m an isolated island. You do love and I do hate. I am earthy, you are skyward. Did you want to have my soul Pulling me into a maelstrom? I could not act on my own. I just followed you at random. “Hey, my doll, let`s have some tea”. “Let me play with you, my master”. But I`m not in love, you see, Toys don`t fall in love – it`s nasty. You do know which string to pull. And you know my every weak point. But I`m not in love, you, fool. You can`t take my heart and own it. What we have is déjà vu. Who is nervous? Who is careless? I won`t fall in love with you. Lifeless dolls are cold and senseless.
