I was as dark as the night
Even without a mask I could affright
You saw it before me
Then you ran for your life

I had a deal in Sleepytown
Could only breathe with you around
Why should I say when you resound
Why should I think when you expound

Like a puppet you played me round and round
As a white paper I was flat
But whose fault is that?
I was the one who wasn't being profound

My favourite puppeteer wears ties
But he's tired of handling me
Sensitive poppets always cries
So he puts button eyes

My favourite puppeteer wears ties
Doesn't mean he's a bad guy
Sensitive poppets always cries
So he puts button eyes
Just button eyes

When I saw the distance between our egos
It was too late to reach, you were too high
At the bottom of this cliff, all I hear is echos
'Cause you flew away towards the sky

Like a puppet you played me round and round
As a white paper I was flat
But whose fault is that?
I was the one who wasn't being profound

My favourite puppeteer wears ties
But he's tired of handling me
Sensitive poppets always cries
So he puts button eyes

My favourite puppeteer wears ties
Doesn't mean he's a bad guy
Sensitive poppets always cries
So he puts button eyes
Just button eyes

In my reflections on the water
I can see the needle and the thread
He didn't make it, he's not holding
With hands on his head
He don't believe what he just fed

My favourite puppeteer wears ties
But he's tired of handling me
Sensitive poppets always cries
So he puts button eyes

My favourite puppeteer wears ties
Doesn't mean he's a bad guy
Sensitive poppets always cries
So he puts button eyes
Just button eyes

I had a deal in Sleepytown
Could only breathe with you around
'Chose to break the deal to get control
Not more a stitcher, just a richer soul
