The Marionette’s Song
My limbs are light, my hands are free,114Please respect copyright.PENANAo5f2lURhsD
yet unseen strings still tether me.114Please respect copyright.PENANA2pjmYb139Y
I dance, I bow, I play my part,114Please respect copyright.PENANA3DRsxM2KlX
a silent tune within my heart.
The puppeteer, with hollow eyes,114Please respect copyright.PENANA7SaTqdd0to
tilts his head and pulls the ties.114Please respect copyright.PENANAZ8OJyvmyB7
I twist, I turn, I rise, I fall,114Please respect copyright.PENANAMFVzjZtFdX
a willing slave, a willing thrall.
And though I try to break away,114Please respect copyright.PENANAzDI82ltwwR
the strings remain—I beg to stay.
