The Puppeteer
Come look in the mirror and you'll see
All the things that you will never be
You know they never really want you around
You're just empty space and mute sound
Watch out
Here it comes again
I'm out shadowing your moves
You are my prey again
You hear them whispering incessantly
I'll let you listen to it constantly
Oh my god just leave my head
Please just leave before I'm dead
I won't be bound by what's not true
And I'm not giving into you
And I've gotta say
I feel those shadows growing stronger
Days are getting longer
I've got to say
The pressure in your chest is tightening
Heart beating it's so frightening
And now you're feeling lost in a crowd
Let me just take a bow
My mind, is it my mind?
I wish I could find
The keys to take control once and for all
Before I fall into a place that I can't crawl back from
I won't be bound by what's not true
And I'm not giving into you
And I've gotta say
I feel those shadows growing stronger
Days are getting longer
I've got to say, is it worth another day?
I can't believe that it's gotten to the point where I've got to ask these questions
I never thought that I would be here
Moving forward never seeing clear
Staying strong, trying to move on
But I'm exhausted, and I'm fading fast
Let me go
I know now what I'm battling
When I'm feeling down it's just this little thing
In my head that wants me dead
Well that's not me, it's not controlling me
I won't be bound by what's not true
And I'm not giving into you
And I've gotta say
I feel those shadows growing stronger
Days are getting longer
I've got to say, is it worth another day?
