Master of the Marionette

Instrumental Intro

Verse 1

Crawl out from the cellar dark

Fingers find the cracks you left

Something awful walks beside me now

I count the breaths you take

You sleep so soft

I sharpen every hour

Chorus

Darkness comes and I arise

Creeping through the night

Stalking you I'm ready to strike

I am the master you are my puppet

Got you dangling from my strings

Dangling from my strings

Post-Chorus

Cut cut cut the thread

Watch you swing instead

Verse 2

Hollow eyes behind the glass

I bend the wire till it sings

Little liar little lamb

You never see the hand that pulls

You twitch you turn

I tighten every knot

Chorus

Darkness comes and I arise

Creeping through the night

Stalking you I'm ready to strike

I am the master you are my puppet

Got you dangling from my strings

Dangling from my strings

Post-Chorus

Cut cut cut the thread

Watch you swing instead

Bridge

Marionette marionette

Who decides which way you fall

Marionette marionette

I decide I decide it all

Chorus

Darkness comes and I arise

Creeping through the night

Stalking you I'm ready to strike

I am the master you are my puppet

Got you dangling from my strings

Dangling from my strings

Post-Chorus

Cut cut cut the thread

Watch you swing instead

Cut cut cut the thread

Swing swing swing
