I am a puppet
In the hands of a puppetmaster
For a puppet without a master
Would sure end in disaster;

Held together
By colourful thread,
Stuffed to the brim
By the lies we are fed;

Clothed in the sheets
Of your deceit,
And left
to bleach in the sun;

Fed by secrets
killed by the truth,
And when in my death bed lay
A bitter-sweet rose bouquette

A last simple memory
Of my life
Before my strings are cut
A last peaceful reminder
Before my eyes forever shut
