Puppeteer by Rhymes with lawyer Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Look at me
Make me smile
Make me say the perfect things
Look alive
Try not to die or the audience will intervene
[Pre-Chorus]
Push and pull
I cannot fool you anymore
I cannot be changed
So don’t you dare let me drag you down into this hell
(Don’t you dare chase after me)
When I cannot be saved
[Chorus]
Why can’t you see it’s not me?
It’s the puppeteer
Why do you believe in me when it’s crystal clear?
Every single day, I say what I havе to say
(Every single day, it’s just one morе taste)
Always watching but do they see the hook, line and sinker?
(Can never be erased like the look on your face)
Stay but don’t love me
Don’t trust me
You could be cut by the puppet string
(Don’t get tangled up in puppet string)
[Verse 2]
Break a leg
Laugh it off
Make a joke and they don’t look too close
(Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!)
Round of applause
That’s our show
Don’t you know it’s all you’re gonna get?
[Pre-Chorus]
Because you’re not my savior
Just my witness
(You're just my witness)
This is not your burden to bear
So save your breath
I have none left to spare
(I have nothing left)
But I’ll save you a chair
[Chorus]
Why can’t you see it’s not me?
It’s the puppeteer
Why do you believe in me when it’s crystal clear?
Every single day, I play whatever the game
(Every single day, it’s just one more taste)
Never biting; I’m the bait on a hook, line and sinker
(Can never be erased like the look on your face)
Stay but don’t love me
Don’t trust me
Call my bluff
Beware the puppet string
(Please don’t get strangled by the puppet string)
[Bridge]
One more day
Just one more page
One more vein
I can’t explain and I can’t wait to make one more mistake
I’ll take the stage but I won’t take the blame cause
[Final Chorus]
I am weak
I can’t speak through the puppeteer
So why do you believe in me when it’s insincere?
Why can’t you leave me be?
I know it’s killing me but I can’t even breathe
I can’t sleep
I can’t eat without losing to a need
Lie to me
Help me stay alive so I can help you grieve
Look at me
Make me smile
Make me say the perfect things
Look alive
Try not to die or the audience will intervene
[Pre-Chorus]
Push and pull
I cannot fool you anymore
I cannot be changed
So don’t you dare let me drag you down into this hell
(Don’t you dare chase after me)
When I cannot be saved
[Chorus]
Why can’t you see it’s not me?
It’s the puppeteer
Why do you believe in me when it’s crystal clear?
Every single day, I say what I havе to say
(Every single day, it’s just one morе taste)
Always watching but do they see the hook, line and sinker?
(Can never be erased like the look on your face)
Stay but don’t love me
Don’t trust me
You could be cut by the puppet string
(Don’t get tangled up in puppet string)
