Puppets

We all feel like we're puppets
Being controlled
And
Nothing really special
Besides being played with

Life for a puppet is hard
You have to face yourself being stitched 
And you have a plain black smile on your face
Your eyes are like buttons 
They fall out all the time
But
Your owner always sews 'em back up

You don't really do anything
All you do is just sit around and act
You're being played on strings
And you can't escape anything

If you do, 
You have to suffer plastic surgery 
By your owner

You always (as a puppet) have to perform in front of people 
And, It's not fun
If you fail,
You get the same punishment as if you did tried...
To escape

So,
Never 
Ever
Become a puppet
Your lifeis controlled 
Under other peoples eyes...
