[VERSE 1]
String to my left
String to my right
You pull me up and down
To the left and to the right
Like I'm your puppet
Like I'm your puppet
[Chorus]
My hands aren't yours
The puppeteer
I don't twist or turn that way
But you control me
And toy with me
I'm done
I'm overworked
Leave me a second to breathe
[VERSE 2]
Cut that string on my left
Struggle with the one on the right
I feel something growing out of me
It hurts
It hurts
But change always hurts
My best friend said
I'm starting to think she was a bit misread
I can feel the porcelain cracking
[Chorus]
My hands aren't yours
The puppeteer
I don't twist or turn that way
But you control me
And toy with me
I'm done
I'm overworked
Leave me a second to breathe
[OUTRO]
Cut that string on my right
I'm free
No longer your puppet, bitch
I'm now my own me
