Puppet Strings

It goes to show ill bleed for this
I cut myself in shame
Because every time I lack at you
I feel a deep-set pain
You ask me to hold on so tight
But I can’t play your games
It’s either me or it is him
We are not the same

Don’t ask me how I could do this to you
Just walking from a part of you
A gave you so fucking much of me
The problem is you didn’t see

You’d thought I’d be here all along
Just a puppet you could string along
But I’m going to take it anymore
I’m walking away for something more

Someone who sees me like they need me
Trouble is you don’t deserve me
Someone who thinks they’d like to be me
Has to look at what I’m leaving

I open the door
Step into your hollow room
Is this what you wanted
As you drag me like a broom
Sweep me underneath the rug
Hiding all the blatant problems
Drop the blanket from your eyes
“Ignore it” never solves ‘em

Don’t ask me how I could do this to you
Just walking from a part of you
A gave you so fucking much of me
The problem is you didn’t see

You’d thought I’d be here all along
Just a puppet you could string along
But I’m going to take it anymore
I’m walking away for something more

Someone who sees me like they need me
Trouble is you don’t deserve me
Someone who thinks they’d like to be me
Has to look at what I’m leaving
