Pulling the String

Running I'm always running from myself No one to help me No one knows Not that anyone who knew would care Dangling Hanging from your tree Am I an ornament of longing A seed trapped inside the shell that is me Nobody can save me from this From myself Hurricane of head space Spinning circle Stacking up the walls that hide you From myself Crumbling of pieces of me An offering to you Falling gifts from me to you Left nothing for myself You had my cake and ate it too And left nothing for me Fist For breaking These eyes For seeing right through Heart For you to trample Confidence lost Nothing to lose Nothing to gain From this loss This right of passage denied Holding the headstone Tied to no one Loosen the knot Pulling the string Losing Feels like I'm losing all my worth No one to notice No one would care If they took the time to stop and stare Nobody has the time for me For myself Blistering of pieces of me I'm giving them to you These sweet whispers are from me to you Want nothing for myself You hold my world inside your hands And leave nothing for me Fist for breaking These eyes for seeing right through Heart for you to trample Confidence lost Nothing to lose Nothing to gain From this loss This right of passage denied Holding the headstone Tied to no one Loosen the knot Pulling the string So sorry For whatever it was I've done So I'm deserting Sincerely, me Got to just be You've got to just know I've got to leave It's time for me to go So here's the note I've left the key I hope that when you find this I've left you with a happy ending Goodbye Goodbye Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye Goodbye Fist For breaking These eyes For seeing right through Heart For you to trample Confidence lost Nothing to lose Nothing to gain From this loss This right of passage denied Holding the headstone Tied to no one Loosen the knot Pulling the string I'm tied to no one (no one) Pull the string I'm tied to no one (no one) Pull the string I'm tied to no one (no one) Pull the string I'm tied to no one (no one) Pull the string I'm tied to no one (no one) Pull the string I'm tied to no one (no one) Pull the string I'm tied to no one (no one) Pull the string I'm tied to no one (no one) Pull the string
