Pulling The Strings

from Bummercamp by Dowzer

lyrics

I thought I would never leave. Well, I was right, cause I’m still here. I lost my guts a long time ago and all what’s left is a show.

Still I’m the puppet and not the one. Thought I was close, but still far gone. I’m not the one pulling the strings. I wanna break but I hardly bend. It’s like a story that never ends. Thought I would float but I am sinking.

I’ve said I’m never coming back. For the fifth time in a row I will eat my words again. I am aware of the burden I will share. I’ll have to make this work, but it’s only getting worse.

He knew he would never lose. he wasn’t wrong. I’ll never win this game that has been played for far too long. I wanna stop but I carry on.
