He was something to observe
Came in close, I heard a voice

Open doors would soon be shut

I walked right out of the machinery
My heart going boom, boom, boom
"Hey," he said, "Grab (5)________ things
I've come to take you home"

And liberty, she pirouette
When I think that I am free
Watched by empty silhouette
Who close their eyes but (6)__________ can see
No one taught them etiquette
I will show another me
Today I don't need a replacement
I'll tell them what the (7)__________ on my (8)________ meant
My heart going boom, boom, boom
"Hey," I said, "You can keep my things
They've (9)________ to take me home"
