Puppet Master

You sit and waste your life away
All these pointless things
You are stuck on strings
Can’t you think for yourself
Your actions,
Based on what you see
Stuck in their gravitational pull

Like a doll
Let others control your every move
Move only when you are told
I think I’ll call you Raggedy Ann
Now let them devour the rest of your soul

Have you lost all since of control
Your mind, has it escaped
You sit and waste your life away
A puppet on strings
Live the same everyday

You know there is better
But this is all you have ever known
Try and reach out
Just to see the other side
But not hard enough
Like demons they pull you back in
Your stuck with them

You sit and waste your life away
All these pointless things
You are stuck on strings
Too weak to cut them yourself

Who are you letting control you life?
1 Peter 1: 13 -14
13Therefore, prepare your minds for action; be self-controlled; set your hope fully on the grace to be given you when Jesus Christ is revealed. 14As obedient children, do not conform to the evil desires you had when you lived in ignorance.
