puppets on a string // l a r r y

iv.

I keep waiting to hold your hand

my heart’s aching but i don’t mind

they keep talking and talking

I think i’m starting to lose my mind

All i need is a smile of yours to have,

to make me feel alive

we’re desperate wanderers of the dark

but when we are in each others arms, our lives are no longer black

Funny how we’re like open books

but we try to keep our feelings inside

Some know and are on our side

But some still give us hateful looks.

Time is always running out,

they try to keep us apart, blocked out

My arms are still open, waiting for you

I carved it on my skin

tried to show it all, for everything to be seen

I’m done with hiding

I keep waiting to hold your hand

my heart’s aching but i don’t mind

they keep talking and talking

and i’m starting to lose my mind

I don’t think anyone can make me feel the way you do

I want to give all my love to you

They think they’re stronger,

but they’re wrong

we never remain on the ground

together we'll be the strongest fighter

One day we’ll be able to hold hands

We won’t have to hide

One day we’ll be able to speak the words

that they tried so desperately to keep inside us
