Cold Barbies - The Puppet Lyrics

When they promised you everything
Did you know what they'd do to you
And did you think you'd be the one
Making decisions for what you love
And when they laid out the terms for you
Did you read every single word
And when you got where you wanted to go
Did you feel how you thought you would
No
Why not
I thought that this is
What you wanted from the start
All you have to do now is
Pretend you're a king when all you
Are is a slave playing a game
You gave them everything but now they're
Pulling the strings making you be
The puppet
You sit on a golden throne
But you've never been so alone, it's true
This one's on you
When you said that you'd do just about anything
They were there with a pen to announce a new king
Now you rule the world
Now that you're at the top and you've got what you want
Is it everything you always thought it would be
Is it enough
It's never enough, it's never enough to say
No
Why not
I thought that this is
What you wanted from the start
All you have to do now is
Pretend you're a king when all you
Are is a slave playing a game
You gave them everything but now they're
Pulling the strings making you be
The puppet
You are the puppet
