You think it's easier to let go
Well I think you should get a grip
Cause when it's going wrong you hang low
Waiting for someone to slip
You'll find the memory
In a place it shouldn't be
And then you'll hear a name
The one that you will come to blame
You think you can help it
But I know that there's no use
When the chance comes around you'll choke
Were you mistaken?
Have you been led on?
Now you think it's time to give it up
You'll find the memory
In a place it shouldn't be
And then you'll hear a name
The one that you will come to blame
When you see it
No one will listen to you now
Cause you couldn't beat it
You know we can see you
You've gotta believe me
You can't fight this on your own
You will sink just like a stone
You can't fight this on your own
You will sink just like a stone
I've got my back against the wall
I'm Waiting for the hangmans call
Then I look into the light
I can feel it now
You're calling out to me
All my thoughts have been withdrawn
And I've waited far too long
Could I feel that way again?
It's not hard to see
You're reaching out to me
Now when all my time has gone
I see that I've become the pawn
And I've been blinded by the light
I can see it now
You're waiting there for me
I can see you
I can feel you
It seems just like a dream
Then I touch you
Then I hold you
But you can't hear me scream
You're just a puppet on a string
So keep on dancin', dancin'
You're just a puppet on a string
Oh you'll keep dancin', dancin'
And you gave it all away
With the words you didn't say
Still, I gave you all I could
But your words have rung untrue
Still, I wish we could start anew
And get a different view
But you're a puppet on a string
So keep on dancin', dancin'
Always a puppet on a string
Oh you'll keep dancin, dancin
The time it takes you
Your mind it breaks you
You're just waiting to give in
I think you know it
But you'll never show it
You don't know where to begin
And you will gladly just fall in line
Well, I am done wasting all my time
Thinking of just what it could've been
And letting you get right under my skin
You're just a puppet on a string
Just a puppet on a string
Always a puppet on a string
Always a puppet on a string
I've got a disease
You'll never get to know
And yes you better believe
That I'm not willing to show
All the scars you gave to me
Cause there's nothing there to see
Now, I'm stuck in the middle of these wasted years
Gonna hit the bottom, while denying my fears
With you
I take a look in the mirror
I can see right through
Just a vacant reflection
Of someone I once knew
And it's hard for me to bare
Cause the ghosts are all thats there
Now I'm stuck in the middle of this twisted game
Wondering if I'm ever gonna be the same again
Yes it's hard to believe it
That I've been waiting my whole life just for you
And now that I need it
I've gotta leave and just forget about it
Now that I realize that i'm stuck here right in the middle
I've gotta leave and just forget about it
Now that I realize that i'm stuck here right in the middle
I can see it far away in the distance
There's not a reason left to stay
So I think I'm gonna leave it here
I can hear the words you say in the silence
I'm gonna watch you fall away
And I think I'm gonna need it
But I think I'm gonna leave it here
I think I'm gonna need it
I think I'm gonna leave it here
I'll search for higher ground
Of what I thought could not be found
I think I've been here for too long
Now i'm gonna be the one to decide
I'm gonna leave and just forget about it
I've been swimmin' in the ocean of your sweet sympathy
I've been searchin' for the answer, so I can finally break free
Once I forgot my name, but you were there for me
You kept it safe from the others, even while I disagreed
So I'm gonna find a way to make this dream come true
And if I get it wrong, you won't be waiting long
I'll get it right someday
You were never one to beg the question
You would leave it there so I could see
And if I couldn't find the reason
You wouldn't ever leave me be
I'll never find another
Another quite like you
And there is one more burning question
But I can see that it's true
Cause I can find a way to make this dream come true
And if I get it wrong, you won't be waiting long
I'll get it right someday
And when the time has come to say goodbye
I will hear what you once said to me
"Don't think about the reason why, focus on what it is you see"
