Verse 1:
End of passion
play, crumbling away
I’m your source
of self-destruction
Veins that pump
with fear, sucking darkest clear
Leading on your
death’s construction
Taste me you
will see
More is all you
need
You’re
dedicated to
How I’m killing
you
Bridge:
Come crawling
faster
Obey your
master
Your life burns
faster
Obey your
master, master
Chorus:
Master of
puppets, I’m pulling your strings
Twisting your
mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me
you can’t see a thing
Just call my
name ‘cause I’ll hear you scream
Master, master
Just call my
name ‘cause I’ll hear you scream
Master, master
Verse 2:
Needlework the way,
never you betray
Life of death
becoming clearer
Pain monopoly,
ritual misery
Chop your
breakfast on a mirror
Taste me you
will see
More is all you
need
You’re
dedicated to
How I’m killing
you
Bridge:
Come crawling
faster
Obey your
master
Your life burns
faster
Obey your
master, master
Chorus:
Master of
puppets, I’m pulling your strings
Twisting your
mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me
you can’t see a thing
Just call my
name ‘cause I’ll hear you scream
Master, master
Just call my
name ‘cause I’ll hear you scream
Master, master
[echo]
Middle:
Master, master,
where’s the dreams that I’ve been after?
Master, master,
you promised only lies
Laughter,
laughter, all I hear or see is laughter
Laughter,
laughter, laughing at my cries
Fix me!
Verse 3:
Hell is worth
all that, natural habitat
Just a rhyme
without a reason
Never-ending
maze, drift on numbered days
Now your life
is out of season
I will occupy
I will help you
die
I will run
through you
Now I rule you
too
Bridge:
Come crawling
faster
Obey your
master
Your life burns
faster
Obey your
master, master
Chorus:
Master of
puppets, I’m pulling your strings
Twisting your
mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me
you can’t see a thing
Just call my
name ‘cause I’ll hear you scream
Master, master
Just call my
name ‘cause I’ll hear you scream
Master, master
[Laughter}
