lyrics

Play with my heart and you do what you want with it
Right from the start, you knew I’d never quit
You tempted me with lies, kept me in a cage
luster disguise, Hides an evil rage

In my solitude, I know you’re not right for me but I love you
I’m your puppet slave, I need'a be saved, but your voice rings, but your voice sings

Heartstrings!
You’re pulling my heartstrings

You feed me lies, through your sweet soft lullaby’s
My soul is yours when I'm looking in your eyes
Nothing can free me now from your death gaze
Just let me out of this crazed mental maze

In my solitude, I know you’re not right for me but I love you
I’m your puppet slave, I need'a be saved, but your voice rings, but your voice sings

Heartstrings!
You’re pulling my heartstrings

Cant you see, I gotta to be free, need a way out of this misery
I need a helping hand, can't you understand, rid me from your command

I’m a lonely soul, cant you ask me for anything I don’t know,
Cut the strings, all the things that your heart brings, as she sings

Be my worker, be my lover, be my serpent now. All at once, so you can be my puppet now,
Cut the strings, its what your love brings, and let me love you, and your Heartstrings
