Tears of a Marionette
There’s three puppets here,
You and him are on the stage;
I am in the box.
·
I am in the box,
Tangled up in my own strings:
Waiting for my turn.
·
Waiting for my turn,
I know, I won’t have that chance:
Darn this puppeteer!
·
Darn this puppeteer,
Pulling your strings far from me:
While you enjoy your show.
·
While you enjoy your show,
My wooden heart snaps for you:
Splintering my soul.
