Tied

[Verse 1]
When I was young they told me
This would be so fun
A shadow of a memory
Is who I've become
Sometimes I feel so empty
I can't hold myself up
The pressure overwhelms me
Who am I to run?

[Pre-Chorus]
Pull the strings
Keep her quiet
Make her dance
So they don't find out
Hold her up

[Chorus]
My hands will forever be tied
To a person I don’t recognize
I'm tied
To a fate that is no longer mine
Push my body, push my mind
Remind me that I'm half alive
I'm tied, I'm tied
My hands will forever be tied

[Verse 2]
What if the lights all dim
And no one cares at all
Bound to this box, I'm so strung out
Until they need a show

[Pre-Chorus]
Pull the strings
Keep her quiet
Make her dance
So they don't find out

[Chorus]
My hands will forever be tied
To a person I don’t recognize
I'm tied
To a fate that is no longer mine
Push my body, push my mind
Remind me that I'm half alive
I'm tied, I'm tied
My hands will forever be tied

[Post-Chorus]
If you cut the cords
Then I might just fall
Then I might just fall down
If you set me free
Who am I to call?
Who am I at all
If you cut the cords
Then I might just fall
Then I might just fall down
If you set me free
Who am I to call?
Who am I at all
