Marionette Lyrics & Tabs by Iluvatar
Marionette
guitar chords lyrics
Same sad excuse
Same boring lies
I can blame it on everyone else
Until the humor in it dies
It can't be my fault
But then who's to tell
A victim of circumstance
Swinging madly from his bells
Some days it's all behind me
But still I hear these things
The conscience that reminds me
Of just who pulls the strings
Cruel laughter from above me
A patronizing stare
I've reached into my soul
Cruel laughter from above me
A patronizing stare
I've reached into my soul
And pulled it out without a care
Ask me again
Night after night
They round me up and then
Shove me into the light
The thoughts which sit
And pull my strings
They stretch the rope so tight
That it might break when my bell rings
But don't you dare remind me
'Cause I know that they are there
When I run they always find me
And yank me into the air
Performing on a soap box
Playing many tired scenes
And I wear a wooden smile
For all who care to see
