Mudvayne Lyrics
"Pulling The String"

Running, I'm always running from myself
No one to help me, no one knows
Not that anyone who knew would care
Dangling, hanging from your tree
Am I an ornament of longing?
A seed trapped inside the shell that is me

Nobody can save me, from this, from myself
Hurricane of headspace, spinning circling
Stacking up the walls that hide you, from myself
Crumbling pieces of me, an offering to you
Falling gifts from me to you left nothing for myself
You had my cake and ate it too and left nothing for me

Fist, for breaking
These eyes, for seeing right through
Heart, for you to trample
Confidence lost
Nothing to lose, nothing to gain
From this loss
This right of passage, denied
Holding the headstone
Tied to no one, loosen the knot, pulling the string

Losing, feels like I'm losing all my worth
No one to notice, no one would care
If they took the time to stop and stare
Nobody has the time for me, for myself
Blistering pieces of me, I'm giving them to you
These sweet whispers are from me to you
Want nothing for myself
You hold my world inside your hands
And leave nothing For me

Fist, for breaking
These eyes, for seeing right through
Heart, for you to trample
Confidence lost
Nothing to lose, nothing to gain
From this loss
This right of passage, denied
Holding the headstone
Tied to no one, loosen the knot, pulling the string

So sorry
For whatever it was I've done
So I'm deserting sincerely me
Got to just be
You've got to just know
I've got to leave
It's time for me to go
So here's the note
I've left the key
I hope that when you find this
I've left you with a happy ending
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

Fist, for breaking
These eyes, for seeing right through
Heart, for you to trample
Confidence lost
Nothing to lose, nothing to gain
From this loss
This right of passage, denied
Holding the headstone
Tied to no one, loosen the knot
Pulling the string

I'm tied to no one (No one)
Pulling the string
I'm tied to no one (No one)
Pulling the string
I'm tied to no one (No one)
Pulling the string
I'm tied to no one (No one)
Pulling the string
I'm tied to no one (No one)
Pulling the string
I'm tied to no one (No one)
Pulling the string
I'm tied to no one (No one)
Pulling the string
I'm tied to no one (No one)
Pulling the string
