[Intro] One footstep, two footsteps, three footsteps Hmmm…hmm…hmmm… [Soft Laugh] Threads in the shadows, dropping like a bomb Sometimes silent and sometimes a storm My laughter is hollow, stitched into my grin A marionette’s heartbeat, pulling from within Hold you up with a strings, tied up and bound Dragging you dancing with me all around One footstep dance little puppet Twirl and swirl, under velvet light Two footsteps blow on your candle Your soul I will snuff it tonight Three footsteps, let me make you sway my words echo, you can’t look away I’m the hand in the silence, the voice in your ear The master of shadows, the puppeteer Keep up the footsteps, follow the pace A mask on your spirit, a chain on your face You’re not that heavy, I can drag you along You’re caught in my rhythm, enslaved to my song Yes I can set you free, but first dance with me But once you dance, [Spoken] (I don’t know) Let’s see, if you’re worthy to be free? One footstep dance little puppet Twirl and swirl, under velvet light Two footsteps blow on your candle Your soul I will snuff it tonight Three footsteps, let me make you sway my words echo, you can’t look away I’m the hand in the silence, the voice in your ear The master of shadows, the puppeteer [whispered softly] (One footstep, two footsteps, three footsteps) I cut the strings, you still obey Your soul remembers, the games I play Whispers in echoes, a ritual chant Your freedom’s a dream, I’ll never grant Dance, dance little puppet, under velvet light Your will is like a candle, I’ll snuff it tonight Whispered commands in the dark cabaret So soft and sweet, you can’t look away I’m the hand in the silence, the voice in your ear Forever your master, YOUR PUPPETEER [Sinister laugh] One, two, three One, two, three… Every smile is stitched… Every move is mine… One, two, three
