there are no strings on me

and yet they still try to subdue me

i said i was sorry

and i know you're not happy

but you should know

that they fake you out

constantly, on a daily basis

and they demand proof

proof of life, of the days you took a breath

because with each breath i take

my lungs will fill with fire

and exhale the life

that i could never have

but all you could say

was that there's always

going to be strings on me

but i'll tell you

that with each lie i tell

a string breaks everyday

just like the routine that

everyone follows
