[Verse] I’m awake but under hand They pull the strings I barely stand A puppet lost in shifting sand [Prechorus] You don’t see the cage they built You don’t feel the creeping guilt [Chorus] You don’t understand I’m trapped in their demands A shadow of the plans I made I made But they fade They fade [Verse 2] They whisper lies in velvet tones A kingdom ruled by paper thrones Their chains are light but crush my bones [Chorus] You don’t understand I’m trapped in their demands A shadow of the plans I made I made But they fade They fade [Bridge] Do I fight or do I bend Is freedom just pretend If I break will it end Will it end
