Puppet on a String by Tammy Bartholomew
You are both like
Puppets on a string
Having to be orchestrated
By other human beings
You can’t stand by yourself
You have to be deceitful telling lies
Everyone can see
Through your fake disguise
Your masters are strong
But that was never enough
Too bad for you
Now life is going to get really rough
You started
A relationship by lying
Can’t imagine part of you
Inside not dying
Neither can stand
To be alone in the war
But in the end
Enjoy your new whore
I loved you
With all of my heart
But now my puppet
You need to make a fresh start
You are great
At the dance and song
Maybe that is why you
Are so good at stringing people along
You used each other
To put on a show
How sad true love
You will never know
Your hearts are
Made of stone
Hopefully neither of you
Will end stringing each other along
See my puppet
You don’t get to pull my strings
Because I am the master
And a great human being
