Marionette with Broken Strings Lyrics by The Hermitt

& the Story of the Insects

0

I'm like a broken marionette, not just with regret
My arms for ever are hang from side-to-side
But when the strings are bold, I just can't seem to move
And suddenly I'll begin to sing
Ay!
Just a thought
Ay!
Just a thought
Ay!
I lie back
Ay!
I lie back
At first, I was fine
Then I lost my fucking mind
Tell me where to go
Is the your hands paralysed and numb
Ayey, I just can't seem to move myself
Tell me where to go
And I keep getting older and growing more confused
This place a haunting picture in my brain
With time my face will change, but I'll remain the same
And the only thing that I can do is sing
Ay!
Just a thought
Ay!
It's just a thought
Ay!
I lie back
Ay!
I lie back
