[Verse 1]
Now you're a clone
With heart of stone
Synthetic soul
Brainwashed and cold
You're just a clone
Got no control
Forced in a mold
Processed and sold
[Bridge]
Hey, you know I find it frightening
How you change just as fast as lightning
[Verse 2]
You fell from grace
Leaving no trace
You've been replaced
Your name erased
[Bridge]
Hey, it's your self-destruction
You never listened to my instruction
Shame, shame, shame, shame
[Hook]
Shame, that everyone's the same
I thought you stood alone
Different from the clones
[Verse 3]
You were a flash of light
A meteorite
Unique in time
Now out of sight
For I have seen
What could've been
I've had a dream
A prophecy
[Bridge]
Hey, now there's no use waiting
Everything is disintegrating
[Hook]
Shame, that everyone's the same

I thought you were the true
Exception to the rules
But the truth is cruel
[Bridge]
Clones, clones, clones, clones
Clones, clones, clones, clones
Hey, now there's no use waiting
Everything is disintegrating
[Hook]
Shame, that everyone's the same
I thought you stood alone
Different from the clones
I thought you were the true
Exception to the rules
But the truth is cruel
