Marionette

So let's start from the beginning
From the first date, you were all dressed up
We didn't take it slowly
We dove in head first into this game called love
Driving through the city with no plans
Found a seat underneath that willow tree
Three words shared for the first time
For me that's just a distant memory

But for the first time I think I feel okay
Because you're not here
Because you're not in my head
Because you're not feeding me your lies
Because I want you gone

You threw words with no resistance
You stabbed my back to go the distance
All for things I've never said
I'd rather be caught dead
Cuz I can't live with this existence
You made up words, yeah you're persistent
All for things I've never said
I'd rather be caught dead

My life became a game
You said, "Talk to me, stay with me
They're not worth your time anyway"
I guess I didn't need them either way
Lost my friends, had no one to turn to
I was charmed by your constant lies
Your possession at my discretion
Too naive, I'm like your puppet
And you're pulling the strings

You threw words with no resistance
You stabbed my back to go the distance
All for things I've never said
I'd rather be caught dead
Cuz I can't live with this existence
You made up words, yeah you're persistent
All for things I've never said
I'd rather be caught dead

All for things I've never said
I'd rather be caught dead

All for things I've never said
I'd rather be caught dead

You threw words with no resistance
You stabbed my back to go the distance
All for things I've never said
I'd rather be caught dead
Cuz I can't live with this existence
You made up words, yeah you're persistent
All for things I've never said
I'd rather be caught dead
But now it's over, I lay here broken
I scream my lungs out with words unspoken
I wish I'd never met you
And I miss the feeling of being happy
You weren't worth my time anyway
No longer trapped by your old mind games
You took me for granted
And I'll never be your toy again

What
