Living in your shadow,
Crushed underneath your thumb
Has left me pale and hollow,
Dreaming of the Sun
You may take control by,
s**ing all my hope away
I must face the truth:
You're the master - I'm the slave
I am just your puppet on a string
Dead until you breathe life into me
I am just your puppet
I am just your puppet
Dead until you breathe life into me
Tried to make me something,
Something I could never be
Stripped me of my freedom,
Stripped me of identity
'Cause when I look inside me,
There's nothing left alive
I don't exist without you,
So how can I survive?
I am just your puppet on a string
Dead until you breathe life into me
I am just your puppet
I am just your puppet
Dead until you breathe life into me
I am sick of my life hanging by a thread
I want you to stay the f** out of my head
I am not your puppet on a string
Dead until you breathe life into me
I am not your puppet
I am not your puppet on a string
Dead until you breathe life into me
