I'm not your puppet anymore.
You said things would be better now
but with you there are always strings attached
my lips are stitched with a triple knot to yours
and you can't see the scars on my lungs
from the goodbye I've managed to hold inside
you never asked if I wanted your heartstrings tied to mine
the noose kiss on my neck is starting to ache
and I can't get out of this death grip you call affection
so please just cut me loose
before I forget how to breathe without you tugging at my strings
and I can't get out of this death grip you call affection
so please just cut me loose
before I forget how to breathe without you tugging at my strings
"before I forget how to breathe without you tugging at my strings" killer close to a killer post

ReplyDelete"You said things would be better now but with you there are always strings attached"..It sounds like your puppeteer has you clinched tightly within his vice grip with a confused understanding of what is truly on the opposite end of those strings. Inspired and Enlightened-
