Story Behind the Song
Originally, this was aimed at those 'iconoclasts'
who really just don't have a clue. ('iconoclast' being
someone who tries to tear down religious ideas and figures)
It then took on more of a broad topic of 'is anyone really
who they pretend to be?' The only time we are ourselves is when
we are alone.
Lyrics
Are you plastic?
Are you real?
Iconoclastic, with synthetic feel,
Are you plastic?
Do you impart, Acts of kindness,
Or are you dark, so dark,
Safe inside these four walls,
Which beasts do you let out?
When you let down your guard,
Who's in chanrge now?
Foul resentment,
From your mouth, Spewing hatred,
What are you about?
It's so futile, the acts you choose,
You try to conquer, what conquers you,
Safe inside these four walls,
Which beasts do you let out,
When you let down your guard,
Who's in charge now,
(repeat first verse)
