Lyrics:
Why do I feel like your puppet
You pull my strings while you play me
Why do I move with your movements
Up on your stage I’m performing
Left you but I’m back here on your sofa
Thought I needed space I want you closer
So why do I move with your movement
Under your strings like a puppet?

I’m too up front to turn my back on this
Swear you did a number on me like some raffle tickets
Lucky you, you stuck with me might as well tattoo this shit
Be like that sometimes, you show up I be acting different

Maybe I’m crazy
But if I lose you
Oh I don’t know if I’ll survive
You drive me crazy
For your amusement
And I’m along for the ride

Got me talking to myself
Saying to myself "oh no"
Sweet nightmare not a beautiful dream
Should move it to the left, move it to the left
Oh I, know I know better, know I know better

So why do I feel like your puppet
You pull my strings while you play me
Why do I move with your movements
Up on your stage I’m performing
Left you but I’m back here on your sofa
Thought I needed space I want you closer
So why do I move with your movement
Under your strings like a puppet?

I don’t mind the strings attached
Big fax no printer
Why you over there looking like a snack
And I’m the whole dinner

Sweet like stevia
No Wonder Stevie isn’t superstitious
I don’t see no competition that’s a Bird Box
You’re the ribbon in my sky
Trippin playing chicken
Hit me like a head on collision.

Maybe I’m crazy
But if I lose you
Oh I don’t know if I’ll survive
You drive me crazy
For your amusement
And I’m along for the ride

Got me talking to myself
Saying to myself "oh no"
Sweet nightmare not a beautiful dream
Should move it to the left, move it to the left
Oh I, know I know better, know I know better

So why do I feel like your puppet
You pull my strings while you play me
Why do I move with your movements
Up on your stage I’m performing
Left you but I’m back here on your sofa
Thought I needed space I want you closer
So why do I move with your movement
Under your strings like a puppet?
