Dollhouse

They see you and they want you
They take you and then play with you
They move you and they use you
Then they get bored and leave you

They lie about you, they tell stories
They play the victim and have no worries
You’re the bad guy, cause you fought back
They break you and turn your soul black

In the end you’re broken and alone
Cause they already have a home
You turn back and keep quiet as a mouse
Just you ALONE in your empty dollhouse
