The Dreadful Puppeteer
The Dreadful Puppeteer
Life is meaningless when controlled by strings
Swish to the left, the right, drone like motion
We begin dancing as if for the kings
Dancing puppets on display, stiff, uptight
The Dreadful Puppeteer
We are all puppets with no free will
We do what we are told; want is taboo
Wishing to be free as air, what a thrill!
Ripe, ready for our awaiting rescue
The Dreadful Puppeteer
Life becomes so dull when under control
Puppets begin to weep for their sweet dreams
Dreams with no strings, taking a carefree stroll
Dreams of new places, no more evil schemes
The Dreadful Puppeteer
Say no more, find the end of this hardship
Between the puppet and the master, Snip!
This is the end of The Dreadful Puppeteer
