You
Don't feel a thing
While curtains are drawn
You're just pulling strings
You're making them fight
Scratch scream and cry
Fighting for life
Saying goodbye
You're forcing them
To cut all their ties
Tearing the hem
Of all of their lives
You're forming lies
And placing the blame
Claiming they're allies
Not puppets to tame
But now there's a twist
You had a role
Rumors amidst
All out of control
Everyone knows
Someone's losing their touch
Things that were simple
Now all way too much
I don't know if you see
Or can even guess who
You might think it's me
But really
It's you.

You
Don't feel a thing
While curtains are drawn
You're just pulling strings
You're making them fight
Scratch scream and cry
Fighting for life
Saying goodbye
You're forcing them
To cut all their ties
Tearing the hem
Of all of their lives
You're forming lies
And placing the blame
Claiming they're allies
Not puppets to tame
But now there's a twist
You had a role
Rumors amidst
All out of control
Everyone knows
Someone's losing their touch
Things that were simple
Now all way too much
I don't know if you see
Or can even guess who
You might think it's me
But really
It's you.
