Telekinetic, the sixth track on Starset’s third album “Divisions”, takes time to compare the concept of the album to puppetry and voodoo.

[Verse 1]
Fake
I'm just a puppet in your play
You pull the strings and I obey, high
That oxytocin hit me just right, yeah
It's counterfeit
Zombie, zombie, could it be a hex?
Got me, got me, you took another victim
Mercy, mercy, put me in check
With your hands wrapped 'round my neck
[Chorus]
I can't breathe at the thought of you
It's a telekinetic issue
Set me free, I've been caught in you
Overcome with a heartsick voodoo
It's tele-tele-e-e-kinetic
Tele-tele-e-e-kinetic
Tele-tele-e-e-kinetic
Tele-tele-e-e-kinetic
[Verse 2]
I found my role in a tragedy
I lost my soul in the make-believe
Just a doll with your threads sewn into me
Paralyzed when you finally cut the strings
So stick your pins in the effigy
Run my life 'til you rip the seams
Build it up in a technicolor dream
A prisoner just for you, now set me free
[Chorus]
I can't breathe at the thought of you
It's a telekinetic issue
Set me free, I've been caught in you
Overcome with a heartsick voodoo
It's tele-tele-e-e-kinetic
Tele-tele-e-e-kinetic
Tele-tele-e-e-kinetic
Tele-tele-e-e-kinetic
[Bridge]
I'm a fool again, you got inside
It's gonna pull me in
I fell for this lie
Serotonin
I'm coming down from this high
A puppet inside
And you're the reason
You take my control
Mind, body and soul
In this lie (Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie)
[Chorus]
I can't breathe at the thought of you
It's a telekinetic issue
Set me free, I've been caught in you
Overcome with a heartsick voodoo
It's tele-tele-e-e-kinetic
Tele-tele-e-e-kinetic
Tele-tele-e-e-kinetic
Tele-tele-e-e-kinetic
