Fiery-Foxfire

Puppet, puppet, taking center stage, See you dancing with hypnotic grace. Leaping, soaring and twirling in place With a smile stretched wide across your face. Recite your lines and keep to the script, Don’t you dare trip or let your mask slip. Follow my lead and move with the strings And you’ll make them believe anything. Let’s play pretend and put on a show. Let’s keep quiet, they don’t need to know. What do you do behind the curtains? Do you know if you’re ever certain? Back and forth in this endless swaying, They all think that you’re only playing. That painted smile and those rosy cheeks Mask the tears you’re hiding underneath. Drown out your guilt in their shouts of joy. They won’t know it’s just a hollow ploy. Fake the wooden act till’ curtain call, Keep your secrets close and sins withdrawn. Puppet, puppet, taking center stage, See you dancing with hypnotic grace. Leaping, soaring and twirling in place With a smile stretched wide across your face.
