Puppets Can’t Control You

Beat me, break me down but I'm still standing

Picking pieces off the ground again

If one day I fall, just hope I stick the landing

Not at the gates screaming to let me in

But I don't know where to start

Damned if I do

It's way too late to fix it

I'll be damned if I don't

The bane of my existence

They said damn kid you gotta try

Even if you never win

You can't pretend

You'll never be happy again

Clip his wings he don't deserve the halo

I'm losing faith in everyone again

If the TV stations sell their lies on cable

Then we're so blind that we'll be tuning in

But I don't know where to start

Damned if I do

It's way too late to fix it

I'll be damned if I don't

The bane of my existence

They said damn kid you gotta try

Even if you never win

You can't pretend

You'll never be happy again

Holding on to nothing

Till it turns into something

Don't like who I'm becoming

I can't keep running

Searching for an answer

Re-reading every chapter

There's no happy ever after when it's over

Damned if I do

It's way too late to fix it

I'll be damned if I don't

The bane of my existence

They said damn kid you gotta try

Even if you never win

You can't pretend

You'll never be happy again
