Puppet
I am not your puppet
not your blank-eyed doll
you may not cuff my hands in string
to play your perfect girl
you tell me "sit and be pretty"
we both know I'll never succeed
playing with perfection never quenched these dreams
so replace the air with prisons of string
try and force a dance
but I am not your puppet
Never will I perform for you.
