Painted Ocean - Pulling The Strings Lyrics

We're falling downward together, buried within
Hold out your shame now forever, wearing you thin
Making a profit off answers with nothing to sell
Aching for ways to forget it, to live with yourself
You wrap me up in words to contain
It wears me down you're pulling the strings
Stuck with a broken heart in the street
I know that I can't, I can't change this
(change this)
You can't change
Between the fragrances, the make-up, and the way that you speak
You had me choking up the words that we both never should speak
Stuck with a broken heart left out to die in the street
You had a palace took for granted I had standards to meet
