Take Me With You - Shell Game

I've grown a shell
A fine exoskeleton
A Faberge extension
Thought it would serve me well
Keep the weather off
Keep the people entertained but
Now I can't reach the pedals
Now my legs aren't long enough to reach the floor
I can't see out anymore
I've grown a shell
I'm afraid to fill
I can't measure up
I'm not that big,
I'm not that shiny, no

So help me
I'm smaller than my life is
Come get me
I'm lost in my controls
I hear you calling
(Hear you calling)
Calling from the outside
I hear you
Knocking on the walls
Can you hear me?

And if you can, get out the way
My big feet will crush your town
Flatten all the differences down
I'm not much for nuance
I'm not much for subtlety
They never had much of a place for me

So help me
I'm locked in my control room
I'm so lonely
Lost in my controls
I hear you calling
(Hear you calling)
Calling from the outside
I hear you
Knocking on the walls
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
