lyrics

Verse 1:
They all hang around you 

Like you've got the answer 

But I know that you don't 

Your lies spread right through them 

And grow like a cancer 

It's fueling your ego 


Verse 2:
You walk down the halls 

Ruling it all 

Your clique at your side 

All vanity and pride 

They all fell in line 

Following every sign 

Never seeing what's inside

Chorus:
You're playing puppeteer 

You're pulling the strings 

The people in your life are just your playthings 

You do it all out of fear 

Cause you're the master puppeteer 


Post-Chorus:
They're not really your friends 

Just a means to an end 

You think that you're playing them 

But you're the one that's being played 


Verse 3:
You put on a mask 

With a smile on your face 

Hidden in disguise 

And they all believed 

While you lied and deceived 

Every single line 


Verse 4:
You laugh and you flirt 

Gossip and hurt 

Insult and blame 

All these petty games 

And they laughed with you 

Hiding all the pain 

Hiding all the pain 


Chorus:
You're playing puppeteer 

You're pulling the strings 

The people in your life are just your playthings 

You do it all out of fear 

Cause you're the master puppeteer 


Post-Chorus:
They're not really your friends 

Just a means to an end 

You think that you're playing them 

But you're the one that's being played 


Bridge:
Someday you will see 

That what you want in your life

Isn't what you need 

And everyone around you knows 

That you will end up all alone 


Chorus:
You're playing puppeteer 

You're pulling the strings 

The people in your life are just your playthings 

You do it all out of fear 

Cause you're the master puppeteer 


Post-Chorus:
They're not really your friends 

Just a means to an end 

You think that you're playing them 

But you're the one that's being played
