Nostalgia makes me think that I want you
Pulling all my strings again
Cause it was simpler back then
I'm tired of putting on an act
But I'm more tired of putting on a fight
So I'll give up and give in
But it always comes back to this
I can hear the monster crawling
I can hear the curtains calling
I'll never ever ever ever be that strong
To break these strings when I know it's wrong
I never ever ever thought it's be that tough to be enough
I'll dance for you
Dance for you
Dance for you
Dance for your love again
I'll dance for you
Dance for you
Dance for you
Dance for your love
Marionette
I stalled you as long as I could but you found out
Now it will never be the same
You tighten the strings in your hand
I reach out my hand for you to feed but you bite chunks out of me
And make me believe that it's all my fault
Cause you could never be the cause
Step on my back so you look higher
I'll shut my goddamn mouth so there's no more fighting
I'll never ever ever ever be that strong
To break these strings when I know it's wrong
I never ever ever thought it's be that tough to be enough
I'll dance for you
Dance for you
Dance for you
Dance for your love again
I'll dance for you
Dance for you
Dance for you
Dance for your love
Marionette
Looking in the water and I don't see
My reflection staring back at me
The moonlight shines only I can tell
That there's nothing left in this empty shell
Looking in the water of the lake
I slice my feet with every step I take
The song of the siren draws me in
Deeper and deeper and I don't swim
Pushing my buttons
Pulling my strings
You're tearing me apart
Pushing my buttons
Pulling my strings
You're tearing me apart
I'll never ever ever ever be that strong
To break these strings when I know it's wrong
I never ever ever thought it's be that tough to be enough
I'll dance for you
Dance for you
Dance for you
Dance for your love again
I'll dance for you
Dance for you
Dance for you
Dance for your love
