Lyrics
(Verse 1)(Soft harmonies behind lead vocal)You thought that I would break without you here (without you here)That I would drown in all my tears (all my tears)But look at me now, I’m standing tall (standing tall)Didn’t need your love at all (no, no)
(Pre-Chorus)(Building harmonies, layered vocals)No more lies, no more games (no more games)I’m done playing in your maze (in your maze)Took my heart, now I take it back (take it back!)No more running in your trap (no more, no more)
(Chorus - Full harmonies, stacked vocals, punchy delivery)I cut the strings, I’m on my own (on my own!)No more puppet, I’m fully grown (fully grown!)You lost your hold, now watch me fly (watch me fly!)Without you, I feel so alive (so alive!)
(Verse 2)(Call-and-response style harmonies)You pulled me close just to push me away (push me away!)Had me believing every word you’d say (every word!)But now I see right through your disguise (through your disguise!)No more tricks, no more ties (no more, no more!)
(Pre-Chorus - Repeat, same vocal layering)No more lies, no more games (no more games!)I’m done playing in your maze (in your maze!)Took my heart, now I take it back (take it back!)No more running in your trap (no more, no more!)
(Chorus - Repeat with more ad-libs, vocal runs in the background)I cut the strings, I’m on my own (on my own!)No more puppet, I’m fully grown (fully grown!)You lost your hold, now watch me fly (watch me fly!)Without you, I feel so alive (so alive!)
(Bridge - Breakdown, beat drops out, vocal echoes)(Deep echoes, harmonies swelling in)Now I dance to my own beat (own beat!)Feel the rhythm under my feet (my feet!)No more whispers in my ear (in my ear!)Now your voice just disappears (disappears!)
(Final Chorus - Huge harmonies, all voices in, high-energy ad-libs)I cut the strings, I’m on my own (on my own!)No more puppet, I’m fully grown (fully grown!)You lost your hold, now watch me fly (watch me fly!)Without you, I feel so alive (so alive!)
(Outro - Fade out, layered ad-libs, smooth harmonies)(Soft, dreamy vocals fading)No more strings (no more strings), no more chains (no more chains)Now I’m free (now I’m free), out of your game (out of your game...)
