Mudvayne - Pulling the String Lyrics
Running,
I'm alway 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 circling
Stacking up the walls that hide you from myself
Crumbling 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 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.
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,
Pulling the string. (x8)
