Pull the String

Everybody knows you're onto something, and they all want in
 They don't know about the bad news you keep underneath your skin
 And they think you've got it all figured out
 But there's one thing you never talk about
 It's a long time gone, but it never went away
 Pull the string
 And this whole thing's coming down
 Just pull the string
 "Smile pretty, the camera loves you", that's what they say
 But there's a part of you that wishes they would all just go away
 'Cause there's one small secret that's bugging you
 It would break their hearts if they only knew
 There's a world outside, you can feel it coming in
 Pull the string
 And this whole thing's coming down
 Just pull the string
 (Pull the string)
 (Pull the string)
 (Pull the string)
 (Pull the...)
 Call your lawyer, deny the rumours
 But some lies are true
 You can go there if you want to, when this ends is up to you
 When you're ten miles up, and you're coming down
 You won't feel a thing when you hit the ground
 You just come apart, and it's like you never were
 Pull the string
 And this whole thing's coming down
 Just pull the string
