Marionette (feat. Michael Lawler)
Can you hear me?
I'm scared of losing myself
I can feel the pressure on my heart
For years confined in this chest
I slowly mask myself among this collection of faces
Numb and emotionless
Look in the mirror
All I see is an aching and broken soul
A cracking reflection,
A fragile smile hides the hurting heart with no connections
Don't tell me how to think, I'm tired to the bones
The bottled up rage that could never be shown
I've waited long enough, these chains have been unlocked
I'm sorry that your game is over now
I am out of control, I am running free
I cut the strings imprisoned myself in me
I keep the mask to remind me to always move on
To follow my heart
All my life I've been living in shackles
No one could set me free and bring me back to what I truly am
Isolated in darkness with this hole in my soul
I fear of the deepest of empty minds
But I've survived through this mess
Must one be cruel to live, to walk and to breathe in this world?
I've waited long enough, these chains have been unlocked
I'm never gonna wear the smile that you forced me to no more
Look in the mirror
And all you'll see is an aching and broken soul
A collection of faces that you hide behind every single day.
Look in the mirror
All I see is an aching and broken soul
A cracking reflection,
A fragile smile hides the hurting heart with no connections
No I won't suffer
Bring me back to what I truly am
When I finally am free to walk on my feet
Stand up, hold on and I will wait for you.
Free yourself
Open your eyes
We can get through this, take off your mask
Free your soul
Open your mind
We can get through this, take off your mask
Open your eyes.
I'm scared of losing myself
I can feel the pressure on my heart
For years confined in this chest
I slowly mask myself among this collection of faces
Numb and emotionless
Look in the mirror
All I see is an aching and broken soul
A cracking reflection,
A fragile smile hides the hurting heart with no connections
Don't tell me how to think, I'm tired to the bones
The bottled up rage that could never be shown
I've waited long enough, these chains have been unlocked
I'm sorry that your game is over now
I am out of control, I am running free
I cut the strings imprisoned myself in me
I keep the mask to remind me to always move on
To follow my heart
All my life I've been living in shackles
No one could set me free and bring me back to what I truly am
Isolated in darkness with this hole in my soul
I fear of the deepest of empty minds
But I've survived through this mess
Must one be cruel to live, to walk and to breathe in this world?
I've waited long enough, these chains have been unlocked
I'm never gonna wear the smile that you forced me to no more

And all you'll see is an aching and broken soul
A collection of faces that you hide behind every single day.
Look in the mirror
All I see is an aching and broken soul
A cracking reflection,
A fragile smile hides the hurting heart with no connections
No I won't suffer
Bring me back to what I truly am
When I finally am free to walk on my feet
Stand up, hold on and I will wait for you.
Free yourself
Open your eyes
We can get through this, take off your mask
Free your soul
Open your mind
We can get through this, take off your mask
Open your eyes.
