The Puppet Master

"The Puppet Master" 

I am the Puppet Master 
I am the one who created you
I am your creator 
I created your every move 

I can let you linger 
I can make you crawl 
I can cut your strings loose 
And watch you fall

I can twist and turn your body 
I can make your legs Dance apart
I can control your every movement 
I've been doing this from the start

You are tied to my strings
You are my slave for life
You are bound to obey me
You are never to leave my sight 

I like to keep you in the dark  
Hidden away 
And only in the dark 
Is when you can come out and play 

So go play now my Puppet 
The strings are loose 
Be back before sunrise 
Or I will come find you
