A Puppet No More!
I walk through fire
that scorches the soul
and scars the mind
wishing to start anew
feeling the power of light
on my flesh tenderly kissing me
giving me balm
for a being that has been
mere ashes from within
no longer will I be
a puppet for the voices
that ring in my head
dizzing me colliding
with a heart
that holds all beauty dear
i've been a wanderer
with little but evil to say
stitching this side of my mouth
I set myself free
the damned may walk inside me
but they will no longer have voice
not wanting to be a mere marionette
I cut the strings
that have been binding me
that scorches the soul
and scars the mind
wishing to start anew
feeling the power of light
on my flesh tenderly kissing me
giving me balm
for a being that has been
mere ashes from within
no longer will I be
a puppet for the voices
that ring in my head
dizzing me colliding
with a heart
that holds all beauty dear
i've been a wanderer
with little but evil to say
stitching this side of my mouth
I set myself free
the damned may walk inside me
but they will no longer have voice
not wanting to be a mere marionette
I cut the strings
that have been binding me
