Lyrics:
I made you, built, split and painted, every little ounce of my love un-wasted
Babe hush now, let's face it, you and I both know that this was ill-fated
Don't think too much or you'll end up like them, like the others in the webs, at the cellar door stairs
So take a second and take a breath slow, 'cause before you know, we go on with the show
Now dance for me... Can't you see... Everybody's waiting for your eulogy
Rip stop, tip top, rigor mortis bone drop, swaying like a corpse in my endless sea
I chose you - yes you, out of all of the others
And this time it's different... I know this time I've got a
New plan, new way now to make you stay
Pull the strings, take a bow, drop the curtains please
Dance for me, dance for me like a puppet, my dear.
Cut the strings, cut the strings and you'll disappear
Every twitch, every breath, every move that you make
I'll decide, I'll decide, when to break those bonds
'cause you belong to me, control you in my hands.
Manipulate you with my symphonies.
Strings tied tight as you fight back. Think you might break free? Think you might take up the slack?
But that's crazy. Every step you take, every move you make, every little breath you're drawing in and letting out? That's me.
Lips loose. I pull the threads, you follow. Your thoughts are hollow. Your time is borrowed
And you don't even realize that my hand guides you. Pulling all the tides in, tides out.
Shh, don't cry, don't shout. That's it - breathe in, breathe out,
Don't sigh, don't pout. You know that you can run, but there's nowhere left to hide.
I'm gonna twist your arms and I'll bend your knees.
I'll make you beg and I'll make you plead.
You think you're free, but you forget
That you're my marionette.
Dance for me. Dance for me like a puppet, my dear.
Cut the strings, cut the strings and you'll disappear
Every twitch, every breath, every move that you make
I'll decide, I'll decide, when to break...
Dance for me. Dance for me like a puppet, my dear.
Cut the strings, cut the strings and you'll disappear
Every twitch, every breath, every move that you make
I'll decide, I'll decide, when to break those bonds
