I'm connected to you

A tether, not letting go

A vortex drawing me in

Wires ripping through my skin

Wires ripping through my skin

Shadow of a whisper

Hypnotized, unaware, prey

Ghostly figure picking through my sinew

Deconstructing my foundation

Perception fades in and out

Remove, implant, reform

Erase what was

Gazing at the mirror

Peering into these eyes

I can only see the night

And there’s no end in sight

OH

I can only see the night

And there’s no end in sight

(I’m just a puppet)

I'm just a puppet, subject to the chemical sway

(Connected to you, not letting go)

How can I divinate another way

(I’ll follow you, draw me in)

(Perception fades)

(Implant, reform)

A fraudulent copy

Identity a faded memory

Pull the strings

Pull the strings, an elegant dance

As we twist and turn

What was may never return

I follow, no resistance

Reformed, a forced perspective

Truth rewritten inside me

Clarity in my apathy

(Unburden me from thought

Finally, a sense of peace

With each twitch of the string)

Twitch of the string

I'm just a puppet, subject to the chemical sway

(Connected to you, not letting go)

How can I divinate another way

(I’ll follow you, draw me in)

(Perception fades)

(Implant, reform)
