Walking on a String Lyrics by Matt Berninger

Walking on a String

2019

[Verse 1: Matt Berninger]
The things you've said are hanging in the middle of my mind Tonight, I can't turn 'em off
I try to worry for your soul but I forget to all the time
I'm in a twisted web and I can't pull my head from it
[Chorus: Phoebe Bridgers & Matt Berninger]
I think about you walking on a string
It always brings me back here
Into the garden by the hand
You've always had me walking on a string
[Verse 2: Phoebe Bridgers & Matt Berninger]
I knew that I was dead before you touched my lonesome skin
You're never running out of ways to worm your way back in
I hang my head and feel the oxygen drain
[Chorus: Phoebe Bridgers & Matt Berninger]
I think about you walking on a string
And it always brings me back here
Into the garden by the hand
Anyone who knows what love is will understand
You've always had me walking on a string
[Outro: Matt Berninger & Phoebe Bridgers]
In a web, I can't escape it
You'll always worm your way back in
To my lonesome soul and take it
You've always had me walking on a string
In a web, I can't escape it
You'll always worm your way back in
To my lonesome soul and take it
You've always had me walking on a string
