Puppet

Living in your shadow
Crushed underneath your thumb
Has left me pale and hollow
Dreaming of the Sun

You may take control by
Sucking all my hope away
I must face the truth:
You're the master - I'm the slave

I am just your puppet on a string
Dead until you breathe life into me
I am just your puppet
I am just your puppet
Dead until you breathe life into me

Tried to make me something
Something I could never be
Stripped me of my freedom
Stripped me of identity

'Cause when I look inside me
There's nothing left alive
I don't exist without you
So how can I survive?

I am just your puppet on a string
Dead until you breathe life into me
I am just your puppet
I am just your puppet
Dead until you breathe life into me

I am sick of my life hanging by a thread
I want you to stay the fuck out of my head

I am not your puppet on a string
Dead until you breathe life into me
I am not your puppet
I am not your puppet on a string
Dead until you breathe life into me
