Marionette

hold me like you own me

maybe now you do

touch me like you love me

make me think it’s true

my strings are frayed, dear puppeteer

have mercy, let me disappear

you whisper softly in my ear

i need you near

can’t help it, you’re controlling me so easily so easily

and you’re holding my thread

like a marionette

can’t help it, you’re controlling me so easily so easily

from the moment we met

been your marionette

like a marionette

(ha ha ha ha ha ha)

only

when you’re lonely

i’m your saving grace

your angel

and it’s painful

trapped in your embrace

you keep my face wrapped in your hands

spin me around ‘til i can’t stand

your voice will echo in my mind

‘til the end of time

can’t help it, you’re controlling me so easily so easily

and you’re holding my thread

like a marionette

can’t help it, you’re controlling me so easily so easily

from the moment we met

been your marionette

swear i’m stronger than this

but you’re so damn hard to resist

and i know you didn’t mean

to say you love me

you’re controlling me so easily

(so easily)

controlling me so easily

can’t help it, you’re controlling me

and you’re holding my thread

like a marionette

oh controlling me so easily

from the moment we met

been your marionette

(ha ha ha ha ha ha)
