Puppets

[Verse 1]
I get breathless for about a day
If I was calmer I would put it down to a bad day
Now I’m obsessed with dates and anniversaries
I’d rather put it on hold

Or maybe I’ll set myself up for defeat
Set myself tasks while I’m dead on my feet
Immerse myself so far your accent’s muffled
And my mood is dictated by the light in the sky

[Chorus]
I’m tired, I told you
Frustrated and scared
Too afraid to feel nothing
To pretend I don’t care
I’m immobile, I’m a sitting duck
Dead on my feet and down on my luck

[Verse 2]
If I’d pressed fast forward while I was sat at my desk
I don’t think a smaller me would be too impressed
It’s the state of the state it’s no reflection on you
I was told if I persisted I could push through

[Chorus]
I’m tired, I told you
Frustrated and scared
Too afraid to feel nothing
To pretend I don’t care
I’m immobile, I’m a sitting duck
Dead on my feet and down on my luck

[Bridge]
Push me pull my strings
I’m not a puppet but I can’t feel my wings
Push me pull my strings
I’m not a puppet but I can’t feel a thing

[Intrumental]

[Outro]
Push me pull my strings
I’m not a puppet but I can’t feel my wings
Push me pull my strings
I’m not a puppet but I can’t feel a thing
Push me pull my strings
I’m not a puppet but I can’t feel my wings
Push me pull my strings
I’m not a puppet but I can’t feel a thing
Push me pull my strings
I’m not a puppet but I can’t feel my wings
Push me pull my strings
I’m not a puppet but I can’t feel
I can’t feel a thing
