[Verse]
This body is mine but it moves on its own
Strings I can't see
They're carved into bone
A hollow laugh
It echoes inside
Who’s pulling the ropes
Where can I hide
[Prechorus]
A mirror that lies
A face that betrays
The clock keeps ticking
I’m lost in the haze
[Chorus]
I feel like a puppet
My heart on a string
Every motion a whisper
I don't feel a thing
This body is mine but it’s not really me
Just a shadow that’s tied to a hollowed-out tree
[Verse 2]
The wind doesn't ask which way it should blow
I’m stuck in a current
I just let it go
My hands write words I don't understand
My feet walk a path someone else has planned
[Bridge]
Who is the master
Where is the stage
I’m locked in this dance
A bird in a cage
The crowd is cheering but I can't bow
I’m searching for answers
I just don’t know how
[Chorus]
I feel like a puppet
My heart on a string
Every motion a whisper
I don't feel a thing
This body is mine but it’s not really me
Just a shadow that’s tied to a hollowed-out tree
