Hardwired Striptease

(yeah) Step into the circle

of the red light glow

Every single movement

heavy and slow

Watch the velvet curtain

start to slide away

You don't have to listen

to a word I say

Loosening the grip, throwing off the weight (uh-huh)

No more hesitation at the iron gate

Taking it off,

piece by piece (oh yeah)

Waiting for the fire to be released Lay it on the line,

let it all drop down

We're burning this whole town

Silk on the timber floor,

a quiet sound

All the walls are spinning

as the beat goes round

Shadows dancing wild

against the cracked drywall

Just a little further

and the mask will fall

Loosening the grip, throwing off the weight

(yeah, yeah)

No more hesitation at the iron gate

Let it go...

drop it down (ahhhh)
