Puppet On A String
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Everyone a child of the sun
But the gap is wide open yet
So we move straight to the might
Far to some demon's delight, I know
Some of them white
They always got right
How can they dare (that) there's nothing to share
And I do, no better than anyone else
Who's helping who, in any way
And I see, too many things not changed
In a thousand-years time
Now I know, why I'm yearning
Cause life is never turning
Puppet on a string
Deliverance, roar for deliverance
And you know why I'm yearning
Cause life is never turning
Puppet on a string
Is a captive thing
Look this man is watching me
He's always been a part of me
And I see, left on the right
Reflecting my body and soul, always
And I see, I look at myself into the mirror of time
Now I know why I'm yearning
Cause life is never turning
Puppet on a string
Deliverance, roar for deliverance
And you know why I'm yearning
Cause life is never turning
Puppet on a string
Is a captive thing
Save me, guardian of the poor
Watching every gamble, playing for high score
You may say I'm blind, right or wrong
Anywhere I belong
I can't deny, but my will ain't strong
All this fake
Sparkles out of gold
Did you ever die for
What your parents told
You may say I'm blind, right or wrong
Anywhere I belong
I can't deny, but my will ain't strong
Everyone a child of the sun
But the gap is wide open yet
So we move straight to the might
Far to some demon's delight, I know
Now I know why I'm yearning
Cause life is never turning
Puppet on a string
Deliverance, roar for deliverance
And you know why I'm yearning
Cause life is never turning
Puppet on a string
Is a captive thing
