Marionette

Marionette baby living in a glass cage
They gave you a key knowing you'd stay
Yeah I tried to set you free
But you kinda like it when they pull your strings
I guess the chaos is better than nothing
When you feel empty
Yeah you feel empty
Oh you feel empty
But you kinda like me

The moment we locked eyes I knew it was over
Flush my composure down the drain (you should stay)
One hit and I no longer remember who I was yesterday
Relinquish control promise that it's safe

Then you say
"I'm not responsible for how things play out
You shouldn't believe what comes out of my mouth"

Marionette baby living in a glass cage
I gave you a key hoping you'd change
Said you wanted to be free
But you kinda like it when they pull your strings
I guess the chaos is better than nothing
When you feel empty
Oh you feel empty
Yeah you feel empty
Well you coulda had me

Mr. Wannabe-Pirate please can you take command of yourself?
Always searching for somebody's coattails (what a shame)
Collecting personality on your shelves
Think you can just pluck a pretty flower
For your subsidized cell

Oh you lost track of the lies you've been threading throughout
But my minds like a trap and your facts don't check out

Marionette baby living in a glass cage
You have all the keys but you're afraid
Do you really wanna leave when it feels so good to pull those strings?
Chaos is better than nothing
When you feel empty
Oh you feel empty
Yeah you feel empty
You're so empty
