[Verse 1]

You're pulling at the same strings

At every chance you get

I've been drowning in your wild schemes

A doll you weave so well

Ah-ah, ah-ah


[Verse 2]

Shoot at my feet, and make me dance amongst your whims

Until I'm one of your things

Your runarounds leave me no leads

In words you dress in lies

I've been wondering where your ache breathes

In mazes you design?


[Chorus]

You said, "Leave me out of myself today

Don't let me realize I'm even there"


[Verse 3]

You've shaken all, all of my means

In the patterns of your net

I've been chasing where your truth bleeds

In lives you never tell?


[Pre-Chorus]

Oh, you never tell

You never tell


[Chorus]

You said, "Leave me out of myself today

Don't let me realize I'm even there"


[Instrumental Break]


[Bridge]


[Non-Lyrical Vocals]


[Chorus]

You said, "Leave me out of myself today

Don't let me realize I'm even there"

You said, "Leave me out of myself today

Don't let me realize I'm even there"


[Outro]

I raise my hand up there, but it doesn't ring a bell

You don't recall my name, no longer in your frame

I raise my hand up there, but it doesn't ring a bell

You don't recall my name, no longer in your frame
