I'll share with you a secret only I know,

This is where the heartless go.

You'll never know, are they friend or foe?

Welcome to the puppet show.


Pull the right strings and I'll do a little jig,

Say the magic words and I'll do it again.

You're the perfect child, you always do too much.

You're a sick mistake and you'll never be enough.

It's always my heart that gets broke in the end.

But they say they're sorry and the show starts again.


Smile for the people,

The church and the steeple.

Walk slow with evil,

Only God can save the feeble.


They're my greatest enemy, I'm their closest friend.

Blessed be the light that shines from the sin.

Child without innocence, soiled is the dove.

A battered false king's crown, and it fits like a glove.

Only one soul can be the puppet master.

Rise dear flower who has flourished in disaster.
