[Verse 1]
Tried it again, it didn't work
No matter what I feel like dirt
Thought time would heal all of my wounds
But the poison grows and then consumes
Until there is nothing more than a wounded marionette on the floor
The great abandoning
The earth walks away from me
My Geopetto to whom I was enslaved
Didn't care to fix my broken face, now here I lay betrayed
I love you but I guess I shouldn't love you in that way
Because it gets me nowhere and I just can't stay the same
An egotistical wannabe, I'm giving it up
No strings on me
[Verse 2]
I feel so free, you can't keep me here
'Cause I got no leash, though I'm freaky still
But I think for myself so no caring
Anymore about how I'm perceived
Not that I don't have room for improvement
I'm finally comfortable in my own skin
I'm not enlightened, I just know this
I still have to find my purpose
And it's something so much better
Than I ever could have imagined
While I was in your hands
While I fought my dragons
Sure you may have carved the wood but who the heck made the tree
Now I have the means to find out
No strings on me
