[Verse 1]
Porcelain skin in the cold moonlight
Threaded heart beating slow at night
Whispers bloom like roses made of dust
Every dream I touch turns to rust
Crimson ribbons falling from the sky
Fairy wings trembling like they’re shy
Mirror on the wall shows someone else
She’s wearing my smile like a stolen spell
[Pre-Chorus]
Tiptoe through the dark in a carnival glow
Every shadow dancing like it already knows
There’s a secret in my bones I can’t forget
Strings pulling tight on this silhouette
[Chorus]
I’m a moon-eyed marionette
Haunted by the stories I’ve never met
In a fairytale forest where the trees confess
All the broken lullabies I suppress
Twisted magic in my breath
Love’s a curse I can’t reject
Dancing on the edge of life and death
A moon-eyed marionette
[Verse 2]
Velvet nightmares kiss me while I sleep
Footsteps echo from the forest deep
Glass butterflies shatter on my skin
I let them cut, I let them in
A crown of thorns made of lullaby notes
Broken clock hands choking my throat
Somewhere in the dark a phantom calls
My name crawling up the castle walls
[Pre-Chorus]
Tiptoe through the dark in a carnival glow
Every shadow dancing like it already knows
There’s a secret in my bones I can’t forget
Strings pulling tight on this silhouette
[Chorus]
I’m a moon-eyed marionette
Haunted by the stories I’ve never met
In a fairytale forest where the trees confess
All the broken lullabies I suppress
Twisted magic in my breath
Love’s a curse I can’t reject
Dancing on the edge of life and death
A moon-eyed marionette
[Bridge]
Pull the strings—
let me fall, let me break, let me sing
Through the cracks—
I see worlds made of shimmering black
If the nightmare loves me, let it stay
If the magic kills me, fade away
But tonight I’ll carve my own silhouette
No more moon-eyed marionette
[Final Chorus]
I was a moon-eyed marionette
Bound by secrets I never met
But the fairytale forest is burning red
And I won’t bow to shadows in my head
Cut the curse from my breath
Rewrite life from death
No more dancing on the edge
No more moon-eyed marionette
