the puppets on the strings



The puppets on the strings
Now they dance to the master's melody
In their hearts they know they have lost
Putting up painted faces hiding the truth

The greed of power
The wealth by easy poles
The lives they live to enjoy
For years they dance the puppet shows

Until their souls are gone
Into the puppeteer grips they belong
They can't escape the strings
Once shackled in they are hooked in their souls

The puppets on the strings
They dance with no convictions
In their hearts they know they have lost
They cry to be free but tomorrow a long way
