Marionette Family Portrait

It's a heart on world with my sleeve steadily exposed A life line on a call line, dial 888 to be controlled Puppets on a string to compose this household The happier we'll be the more we're enclosed        Smaller spaces to lengthen the gap        Encircling our inner self control        Consuming what's left of the demons        Trying to get a refund on our soul        Love changes colors like a rhyme Smooth and easy Eyes like the darkness of time Slow and steady Yet we're still not ready for the fight Insanity walks through the door And just when the time is right Our beliefs slowly melt into the floor
