Puppet by The Dreaming Lyrics

Living in your shadow
Crushed underneath your thumb
Has left me pale and hollow
Dreaming of the Sun

You may take control by
Sucking 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 fuck 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
