[Verse 1]

I'll believe every word

Follow order absurd

Any meaningfully empty display

And the more I'm not sure

I will hold it secure

Make a promise and toss it aside

But I won't be a fool in your eyes

[Chorus 1]

I will be your puppet

I won't be your clown

Pick me up, talk me up

Don't put me down

[Verse 2]

Holding the key

To a world I believed

Could exist if I kissed it enough

Well it took twenty years

To react to my fear

And decide what I couldn't decide

No, I won't be a fool in your eyes

[Chorus 2]

I'm prone to alone with you

Speaking my mind

Don't use that against me

Please be kind
