[Verse 1: Puppet]

Tired of tempting fate

Been at it

Again and again and again

Pressed hard

To play the cards

The devil made

Losing sanity

Played out

It bled and it bled and it bled

Short straws

Mean longer falls

Onto the blade


[Pre-Chorus: Puppet]

Desperation

Feeling ignored

Dead ends through

Thousands of doors

If my fate’s

Already decided

I’m cursed to

Just keep fighting

Reputation

Traded in for

Mistakes that I take pride in

If there’s a key I’ve tried it

There’s thousands like it


[Chorus: Keepsake]

If my fate’s

Already decided

I’m cursed to

Just keep fighting

You placed the blame

And I spite it

You fanned the flames

I’ll light it

You shame the way

That I’m all in

I’m only cursed when I’m falling

The winds have changed

I’m breaking away

I’m not the same

[Verse 2: Puppet & Keepsake]

Built through tragedy

Walls high

I ran and I ran and I ran

Can’t hide in a castle made of dirt

Can’t hide a self made failure’s worth

(well fed)

Here it comes

(regret)

On the run from judgement

Superstitions grow

(reset)

Til they become

(forget)

All I know


[Pre-Chorus: Puppet]

Desperation

Feeling ignored

Dead ends through

Thousands of doors

If my fate’s

Already decided

I’m cursed to

Just keep fighting

Relief became reality

Slowly pulled it out of me

This key was always hiding

There’s thousands like it


[Chorus: Keepsake]

If my fate’s

Already decided

I’m cursed to

Just keep fighting

You placed the blame

And I spite it

You fanned the flames

I’ll light it

You shame the way

That I’m all in

I’m only cursed when I’m falling

The winds have changed

I’m breaking away

I’m not the same

[Outro: Puppet & Keepsake]

Write until the final page

My ink runs red

I’m cursed to bleed

The scars that faded

I’ve chosen to see

Mistakes that made

The best out of me

This stories not to read

All I’ve done

History

The blade you gave me

Is facing both ways

I’m not the same

I’m not the same
