The Marionette’s Song
My limbs are light, my hands are free,109Please respect copyright.PENANAYiaRe8HYXy
yet unseen strings still tether me.109Please respect copyright.PENANA5FZe6J85p9
I dance, I bow, I play my part,109Please respect copyright.PENANAADMHqKa8pv
a silent tune within my heart.
The puppeteer, with hollow eyes,109Please respect copyright.PENANA077nyJJAVj
tilts his head and pulls the ties.109Please respect copyright.PENANA7s3irRgJhy
I twist, I turn, I rise, I fall,109Please respect copyright.PENANAhYxBfJVtwp
a willing slave, a willing thrall.
And though I try to break away,109Please respect copyright.PENANAWJOdz3BZQY
the strings remain—I beg to stay.
