Lyrics Marissa Nadler

Marissa Nadler

Puppet Master

Once your eyes were the master

Muse to all my songs

Cobalt and sea come back to me

I'll never do wrong

Winter would come

And nothing would move

Summer's undone with all did I choose

Cobalt and sea come back to me

I'll never do you wrong

I was your pearl and I knew that you lied

I was your pearl and I knew that you lied

Lately all I want is you

Sometimes I believe I do

Fifty strings of yarn and glue

Puppet master see me through

Lately all I want is you

Puppet master see me through

Scissors in hand a knife at my strings

An odd way to go but I seen stranger things

Oh I grew the finest wings

Over the water

And on my old menagerie

A bottle that you made stood me

Cobalt and sea

Come back to me

I'll never do you wrong

I was your pearl

And I knew that you lied

I was your pearl

And I knew that you lied

Lately all I want is you

Sometimes I believe I do

Fifty strings of yarn and glue

Puppet master see me through

Lately all I want is you

Puppet master see me through
