Dance On The Strings
Heart's Marionette: A Poetic Tale of Love's Struggle
Lyrics
I know you love her, but its like no other
The person being addressed loves someone, but their love is unique or incomparable.
Bending til you break, the pressure you take
Bending under pressure until reaching a breaking point, enduring stress.
Falling to demand without hesitation
Submitting to requests or expectations without hesitation.
It’s never enough, but you don’t give up
The efforts put in are never sufficient, yet there's no abandonment of trying.
As You
Referring to the person being addressed.
Dance on the strings she’s sewn to your heart
Metaphorically describing being controlled by someone else's influence or manipulation.
I’m watching you fade as you’re pulled to the dark
Observing the person losing themselves as they're drawn towards negativity or despair.
I can’t reach your soul while she’s taken hold
The speaker feels unable to connect with the person because someone else has a strong influence on them.
I can no longer watch you dance on these strings
The speaker can't continue witnessing the person being controlled by external forces.
Unwavering devotion through twisted emotions
Remaining loyal despite experiencing complex and conflicting emotions.
They hollow you out, surround you in doubt
External pressures create a sense of emptiness and uncertainty.
But I know the real you, look deep inside you
Encouragement to look inward to discover one's true self amidst manipulation.
she’s led you so blind to leave us behind
The influence of another person has blinded the person being addressed to their connection with the speaker.
So You
Referring again to the person being addressed.
Dance on the strings she’s sewn to your heart
Continuing the metaphor of being controlled or influenced by someone else's actions.
I’m watching you fade as you’re pulled to the dark
Watching the person being pulled towards negativity while feeling unable to reach them.
I can’t reach your soul while she’s taken hold
Feeling incapable of connecting with the person due to the influence of someone else.
I can no longer watch you dance on
Expressing the speaker's inability to witness the continued control or manipulation.
These Strings that bind you
Describing the strings as a metaphor for constraints or limitations.
Trap and entwined you
Feeling trapped and deeply entangled in these constraints.
I wait for them to come loose
Hoping for a release from these constraints, but unsure if it's too late.
Or is it too late?
Questioning whether there's still a possibility for liberation or if it's past the point of rescue.
While You
Referring once more to the person being addressed.
Dance on the strings
Continuation of being controlled or influenced by someone else's actions.
She’s sewn to your heart
Reiterating the metaphorical attachment of the strings to the person's heart.
Watching your dreams
Observing the person's aspirations or desires being drawn towards negativity.
