The Correspondents - Puppet Loosely Strung Lyrics

Lyrics Puppet Loosely Strung - The Correspondents



Let me put myself in your shoes
As a puppet loosely strung
Around you they were so confused
That a faulty man could have so much fun
They read your smiles, nothing but teeth
They looked at you with pity first, then disbelief
Let me put myself in your shoes
As a puppet loosely strung
They may think they′d never choose
To be the man that you've become
You never felt the need to conform
We get drunk or high to feel
What you′ve felt since you've been born
I'm tied to so many things I don′t need to do
I′ll loosen my strings to feel more like you
I'm tied to so many things I don′t need to do
I'll loosen my strings to feel more like you
Let me put myself in your shoes
As a puppet loosely strung
Did you feel the weight of other′s views
Or was their ignorance a source of fun?
I hated the whispers in the street
Do you oppose a greeting
Pulling the rug beneath their feet?
I'm tied to so many things I don′t need to do
I'll loosen my strings to feel more like you
I'm tied to so many things I don′t need to do
I′ll loosen my strings to feel more like you
In the past, you would have been seen as a family's disgrace
Now they think you′re putting on a brave face
They might fear that one day they'll wear your shoes
But you′re the one who's laughing, you had nothing to lose
They just couldn′t see
That it was me needing you, not you needing me
They just couldn't see
That a puppet loosely strung is not what I wanna be
They just couldn't see
That it was me needing you, not you needing me
They just couldn′t see
That a puppet loosely strung is not what I wanna be
I′m tied to so many things I don't need to do
I′ll loosen my strings to feel more like you
I'm tied to so many things I don′t need to do
I'll loosen my strings to feel more like you
They just couldn′t see
That it was me needing you, not you needing me
They just couldn't see
That a puppet loosely strung is not what I wanna be
