Have you met The Puppeteer?
Have you seen his show?
He feeds off your darkest fears
And then he'll never let you go

The light's going down now
The show is starting
The crowd is going wild
He pulls on the wires
The curtains are parting
So I take my place and smile

Dancing by the strings wrapped around my neck
Choking on the tears that I'm holding back
Oh it's getting
So hard
To breathe

No one can see The Puppeteer's hold
La La La La
La La La La
Oh, does anybody see
La La La La
La La La La
The Puppeteer's hold on me?

We rehearsеd a thousand times
An actress on display
But I get stagе fright every night
When that monster comes out to play

I better get ready
The curtain call comes
They're all waiting for me
The Puppeteer loves
When everyone clap, clap, claps
At the end of the scene

Dancing by the strings wrapped around my neck
Choking on the tears that I'm holding back
Oh it's getting
So hard
To breathe
No one can see The Puppeteer's hold
La La La La
La La La La
Oh, does anybody see
La La La La
La La La La
The Puppeteer's hold on me?

No one can see The Puppeteer's hold on me
