No Longer a Puppet, But a Woman
How many times will I do this? Wait on someone who won’t show?
It isn’t like I expect much, you are a heartbreaker this I already know.
I didn’t listen to what they were saying, I didn’t want to believe the truth.
Now here I sit all alone crying wasting my precious youth.
There are so many things I wanted to do in life, so many things I put off in hope.
That one day you would grow up and see how I feel, now it is in darkness I grope.
I don’t understand how you can be so heartless, so cold and cruel.
You made a puppet out of me, your waiting, mindless fool.
Are you laughing where you are, laughing at me in my state?
How can a heart once so warm turn to ice and leave me to this fate?
What burdens had you to bear in your life, you’re spoiled with your possessions.
Now I hope it tears a hole where your heart once lay to hear my many confessions.
I’ve loved you completely for as long as I can remember.
Now this love I once felt for you is down to it’s last ember.
I just can’t do it anymore, move where the strings make me.
I’ve severed the hold, I’m no longer controlled, I have been set free.
This is fire.
