[Verse 1]
A puppet is only strong as its strings
I forgive and forget, yet the truth still stings
The lies are all easy, and the words are hard to swallow
The leaders get k**ed, we're never fulfilled
Yet we follow (we all follow)
[Chorus]
In the back of our minds we know
Both of our hearts keep letting go
In the back of our minds we know
I aim to let it go
[Hook]
Too many times
I've watched us crash and burn
At the fork in the road
We've made a wrong turn
We've made a wrong...
[Verse 2]
If these apartment walls could talk
The story would be a nightmare
When all you wants a dream (when all you want)
We're just living a lie
And this will never survive
So we run and hide
Whenever the truth arrives
[Chorus]
[Hook]
[ Outro: Tyler Carter]
Don't you know I'm sick of this bullsh**
It's like I'm stuck in the ocean
Taken away to the open
Give it a day I'll be hoping for someone to rescue me
Let me put a message in a bottle (to whom it may concern)
Note to self: Kid, you'll probably never learn
These words are self-reflective (you're drowning yourself)
The fork in this road is your heart choosing heaven or hell (your heart choosing heaven or hell)
