Lyrics Ashelyn Summers - Puppet Master

They all hang around you
Like you’ve got the answer
But I know that you don’t
Your lies spread right through them
And grow like a cancer
It’s fueling your ego

You walk down the halls
Ruling it all
Your clique at your side
All vanity and pride
They all fell in line
Following every sign
Never seeing what’s inside

You’re playing puppeteer
You’re pulling the strings
The people in your life are just your playthings
You do it all out of fear
Cause you’re the master puppeteer

They’re not really your friends
Just a means to an end
You think that you’re playing them
But you’re the one that’s being played

You put on a mask
With a smile on your face
Hidden in disguise
And they all believed
While you lied and deceived
Every single line

You laugh and you flirt
Gossip and hurt
Insult and blame
All these petty games
And they laughed with you
Hiding all the pain
Hiding all the pain

You’re playing puppeteer
You’re pulling the strings
The people in your life are just your playthings
You do it all out of fear
Cause you’re the master puppeteer

They’re not really your friends
Just a means to an end
You think that you’re playing them
But you’re the one that’s being played

Someday you will see
That what you want in your life
Isn’t what you need
And everyone around you knows
That you will end up all alone

You’re playing puppeteer
You’re pulling the strings
The people in your life are just your playthings
You do it all out of fear
Cause you’re the master puppeteer

They’re not really your friends
Just a means to an end
You think that you’re playing them
But you’re the one that’s being played
