lyrics

Push me. Pull me.
Break me. Mould me.
I am the marionette.
All my decisions are up for rent.

Maybe I just needed a friend.
Maybe I just wanted to pretend
That I wasn't so different.
That I could get these stripes to blend.
You throw me a side glance
But I ain't no wife.
Funny you think me empty
When assumption in you is so rife.

CH.
Push me. Pull me.
Break me. Mould me.
I am your puppet on a string.
Whatever you need just ring.

Watch them all fall over you
But baby I know the truth.
We are but one and the same.
We both wanna win this god damn game.
You say I've no substance.
That I don't know life...
But baby I've spent all of my time
Walking the edge of this knife.

CH.
Break me. Mould me.
You think you know me.
Well maybe I'm not ready yet.
But baby are you ready to take that bet.
Make me. Break me.
But you cannot take me.
I'm coming back stronger than before.
I won't need to come knocking on your door.
[Break}
Make me. Break me.
But you cannot take me.
I'm coming back stronger than before.
I've said it twice I won't come knocking on your door.

I'm gonna spread my wings
And I'm gonna fly
Cause you're just another someone else.
Didn't know that I could think for myself.
Make me. Break me.
But you will not take me.
This is my wave and I'm gonna swim.
Come on, keep up.
You missed it. You blinked.
