Manipulator
November 10, 2009
I'm pulled up by strings
As the puppeteer sings
My face frozen in a Cheshire cat grin
The one that invites you in
He makes me prance around the stage
The audience laughs
outside my cage
The story continues
What will happen next
What will happen to the marionette
The monster comes
but I can not run
What will become of me when he's done
He slashes the curtains
Torn and tattered
I can not hide
I trip on my stings
Bruised and battered
The battle rages
And yet I stay
Waiting for the puppeteer to turn the page
