Intro
Female vocals
String me... string me... string me up...
Tempo shift
Verse 1
Rap
Male vocals
I just don't get it... I know if I don't ask questions, then I'll regret it... or even worse, I'll shut up shop, and just forget it... if it's broken, then shut it down and just reset it...
Yeah... I've thought for so long... about all that went wrong... I just need a place to belong... I believed I was strong... or maybe... I was just wrong... all along...
Bridge
Female vocals
String me... string me... string me...
Chorus
Male & Female vocals
So am I better off as a Marionette...
I'll groove to tunes from your clarenet...
I'm just a dancer on a stage...
Pull my strings, then lock me in a cage...
Verse 2
Rap man
Am I blind... or confined... I don't even know what I'm trying to find... I'm not unkind... but my reality remains undefined... I dont know where I'm aligned... I'm precariously entwined... I feel like a puppet that was designed...
To be perfectly lined... ridiculed and maligned... I'm refined... and ready to be streamlined...
Bridge
Female vocals
String me... string me... string me up...
