Joseph Arthur - Puppets lyrics

Give less than I take

Dream you up as anything

I have no memory

Every moment, eternally

I wanna try

To get away from everybody else

To get away from everybody else

I cut myself

But no blood came

And no one helped

Strings that we can't see

Puppet you

And puppet me

I wanna try

To get away from everybody else

To get away from everybody else

And you don't know

What its like to try

To change where you go

And break the lie

And you never show

What its like inside

To raise your (nose?)

And break your pride

Hearts crack like canes

As children break the spider's legs

Strays out in our yards

Of buried bones and boulevards

I wanna try

To get away from everybody else

To get away from everybody else
