Marionette Lyrics by Wither

Rot and I

2018

What do you mean you're leaving?
What do you mean you’re leaving?

Holy fuck you're leaving
Joke's on me for believing you actually cared
(You never actually cared)
I wish I were dead
I really wish I were dead
(On the floor)
But even God will reject me in the end

Why won’t you answer your phone?

(Maybe) I'm overreacting
(Maybe) my life isn't collapsing
(Oh oh)
I'm crying on the floor
You screened another call
If you hate me after all
I'll throw my head through my bedroom wall
(Maybe) it's only space that you're needing
(Maybe) I'll tone it down with the pleading
(Oh oh)
It’s really fucking hard
When you won’t say a word
Yeah, it's really fucking hard
Who am I kidding? It’s over

What am I without you?
(What am I without you?)
What am I without you?
Please don't throw me away
His voice is getting louder now I'm really afraid
Soon I'll be asleep and he’ll be very awake
What am I without you?
(What am I without you?)
What am I without you?
Oh, I need you to stay
Just a little bit longer it'll all be okay
I swear I'll make it okay
I swear I'll make it

(Maybe) the past few months you've been acting...
(Maybe) Oh God it's actually happening
(Oh oh)
I don't want to blame you
I never wanted to
But the past few weeks you left me hanging so

How would you like it if I left you hanging?
I'll leave you hanging off the bathroom door

You'll look so cute just above the floor

He's louder than I am
(I told you so)
You should have got with the program
(I told you so)
And now he'll never leave
Until he gets what he needs
I'm begging you, please
I'm on my fucking knees
What am I without you?
(What am I without you?)
What am I without you?
Please don't throw me away
His voice is at it's loudest now I'm really afraid
I think I'm falling asleep and he is very awake
What am I without you?
(What am I without you?)
What am I without you?
Oh, I need you to stay
Just a little bit longer or you won't be okay
If you're actually leaving, I can't keep you safe
(Can't make him stop, can't make him stop
Starting to rot, starting to rot)

I can't keep you safe

I won't rest
I won't rest
I won't rest
Until your neck breaks
