(note:the reason I tabbed this is because,
the other version is extremely primative,
incomplete, and obsolete.)

(lyrics)
"I listen to the words he'd say,
but in his voice I heard decay,
the plastic face forced to portray,
Il'l be inside left cold, and gray,
there is a place that still remains,
it eats the fear,it eats the pain,
the sweetest price hel'l have to pay,
the day the whole world went away"
