[Verse 1]
Have you met the puppeteer?
Have you seen his show?
He feeds of your darkest fears
And then he'll never let you go
The light's going down now, the show is starting
The crowd is going wild, he pulls all my wires
The curtains are parting so I take my place and smile

[Chorus]
Dancing by the strings wrapped around my neck
Choking on my tears that I'm holding back
Oh it's getting so hard to breathe
No one can see the puppeteers hold
La-la-la (La-la-la)
La-la-la (La-la-la)
Who does anybody see?
La-la-la (La-la-la)
La-la-la (La-la-la)
The puppeteers souls on me

[Verse 2]
We were [?] a thousand times, an actress on display
Whеn I get stagefright evеry night
When the monster comes out to play
I better get ready, the curtain call 'cause there all waiting for me
The puppeteer loves when everyone
Clap clap claps at the end of the scene

[Chorus]
Dancing by the strings wrapped around my neck
Choking on my tears that I'm holding back
Oh it's getting so hard to breathe
No one can see the puppeteers hold
La-la-la (La-la-la)
La-la-la (La-la-la)
Who does anybody see?
La-la-la (La-la-la)
La-la-la (La-la-la)
The puppeteers souls on me

[Outro]
No one can see the puppeteers hold on me
