Act III

Balancing on a string
Do you see the ones attached to you?
I pull you across the stage
You move because I tell you to

You're under my control
Caught in my spiraling web
Just one of many pawns
I've gotten in your head

This is my world, you're all just spinning in it
I let you live another day, you're all just entertainment
And no, why would I change it? It's perfect how it is
You performing, me backstage, always pulling strings

I am always here
As your little play goes on
You've escaped me once before
Mr. Spider's not really gone

This is my world, you're all just spinning in it
I let you live another day, you're all just entertainment
And no, why would I change it? It's perfect how it is
You performing, me backstage, always pulling strings

So I've been watching you
Waiting your whole life to do
It's coming and you don't know when
I won't let you escape again

You do just as I plan
Always none the wiser
I never reveal my hand
Do you know where you got that lighter?

This is my world, you're all just spinning in it
I let you live another day, you're all just entertainment
And no, why would I change it? It's perfect how it is
You performing, me backstage, always pulling strings

This is my world, you're all just spinning in it
I let you live another day, you're all just entertainment
And no, why would I change it? It's perfect how it is
You performing, me backstage, always pulling strings
