Marionette

She says "Hey, wait!"
And listen now to what I've gotta say
I don't think I want it this way
We've become some
Poor excuse of love that's come undone
And how did we get so numb?
I wanna be in your control
So unmerciful
But you can twist me and turn me
Just don't let me go

I wanna be your puppet on a string
Baby, I'm not holding back, we can do anything
And even if I am crazy, it's 'cause you made me this way
We're as close to love as we'll ever get
I wanna be your marionette, marionette, marionette
I wanna be your marionette, marionette, marionette

So let's play the charade
I'm helpless like a child lost in the dark
And I need you to light a spark
It's a game, but the same
I need to feel that this is real somehow
So don't disconnect me now
I wanna be in your control
So unmerciful
But you can twist me and turn me
Just don't let me go

I wanna be your puppet on a string
Baby, I'm not holding back, we can do anything
And even if I am crazy, it's 'cause you made me this way
We're as close to love as we'll ever get
I wanna be your marionette, marionette, marionette
I wanna be your marionette, marionette, marionette

We're lying head to head
And toe to toe
And we're body to body
I feel you beside me
We're in this masquerade
A beautiful game to play
It's so powerful with you controlling me

I wanna be your puppet on a string
Baby, I'm not holding back, we can do anything
And even if I am crazy, it's 'cause you made me this way
We're as close to love as we'll ever get
I wanna be your marionette, marionette, marionette
I wanna be your marionette, marionette, marionette
I wanna be your marionette, marionette, marionette
I wanna be your marionette, marionette, marionette
