I can feel in my soul tonight's cold again In this household he builded When he's the only one in control My mind is going crazy My pride, my dignity, gone missing To the oblivion of his heartless body I can't breath, I can't move, I'm held frozen in his emotional prison and physical trauma I'm addicted to the feeling of freedom I've created in my mind; Wanting for more when he chained me In his lustful embrace Bruising my soul in every touch he made I remember the rhythm of his breathing, With the smell of drunken breath; He whispered in my ears; Closing my eyes; Pulling my hair; He said, "Oh darling, be a good marionette to your husband" I can't breath I wanted to scream I can't move I wanted to run All I can hear is my heart racing; I'm held frozen in his emotional prison and physical trauma Then he walked out of that door, The door to my only freedom from his abuse, But I don't have the key to set me free; I couldn't deny I prayed in the dark Facing to the Heaven To set me free from the strings; As if he is a Puppeteer and I'm his little Marionette; In a pull of the string, I'll be the good doll ready for his command I can't breath, I can't move, I'm held frozen in his emotional prison and physical trauma.

Darling Marionette
I can feel in my soul tonight's cold again In this household he builded When he's the only one in control My mind is going crazy My pride, my dignity, gone missing To the oblivion of his heartless body I can't breath, I can't move, I'm held frozen in his emotional prison and physical trauma I'm addicted to the feeling of freedom I've created in my mind; Wanting for more when he chained me In his lustful embrace Bruising my soul in every touch he made I remember the rhythm of his breathing, With the smell of drunken breath; He whispered in my ears; Closing my eyes; Pulling my hair; He said, "Oh darling, be a good marionette to your husband" I can't breath I wanted to scream I can't move I wanted to run All I can hear is my heart racing; I'm held frozen in his emotional prison and physical trauma Then he walked out of that door, The door to my only freedom from his abuse, But I don't have the key to set me free; I couldn't deny I prayed in the dark Facing to the Heaven To set me free from the strings; As if he is a Puppeteer and I'm his little Marionette; In a pull of the string, I'll be the good doll ready for his command I can't breath, I can't move, I'm held frozen in his emotional prison and physical trauma.
