The Puppet

I'll practice my fall
For practice makes perfect
Chained to the wall
For maximum hold
The window's so far
Too far from my legs
Open the door and let out the cold

Chorus:
You knew about this 
With your head in your hands 
All along 
I was the puppet 
I was the puppet

Trampolines broken
Ceiling has come down
The ache in my back tells me
Something's gone wrong
Rocking horse rocks
As the wallpaper peels
Curtain would like to know
What he has done

(chorus)

We're the salt of the earth
(I'll practice my fall for practice makes perfect) 
And we know what to say
(Chained to the wall for maximum hold) 
We're the salt of the earth
(The window's so far too far from my legs) 
And we know our place
(Open the door and let out the cold) 

(chorus) 

All along 
(You knew about this) 
With your head in your hands 
All along 
(You knew about this) 
I was the puppet (x2)

(You knew about this) 
Head in your hands 
(You knew about this) 
I was the puppet (x2)
(We're the salt of the earth) 
You knew about this 
(We know what to say) 
Your head in your hands 
(We're the salt of the earth) 
All along 
((You knew about this))
(We know a place) 
I was the puppet 
(We're the salt of the earth) 
All along 
(We know what to say) 
((You knew about this)) 
Your head in your hands 
(We're the salt of the earth) 
I was the puppet 
((You knew about this)) 
(We know what to say) 
I was the puppet

Never Stop

Good God, you said
Is that the only thing you care about
Splitting up the money
And share it out
The cake's being eaten
Straight through the mouth
Poison
Poised to come back in
Season
For all the ones who lack
Reason

Measure by measure, drop by drop
And pound for pound, we're taking stock
Of all the treasure still unlocked
The love you found must never stop

The king is dead
And long live the people who aim above
All the simple stuff never understood
Like right from bad and wrong from good
Deny
That you were ever tempted by the
Lie
That there's an answer in the
Sky

Measure by measure, drop by drop
And pound for pound, we're taking stock
Of all the treasure still unlocked
The love you found must never stop

Never stop

Bring on the Dancing Horses

Jimmy Brown
Made of stone
Charlie Clown
No way home
Bring on the dancing horses
Headless and all alone

Shiver and say the words
Of every lie you've heard

First I'm gonna make it
Then I'm gonna break it
Till it falls apart
Hating all the faking
And shaking while I'm breaking
Your brittle heart

Billy stands
All alone
Sinking sand
Skin and bone
Bring on the dancing horses
Wherever they may roam

Shiver and say the words 
Of every lie you've heard

First I'm gonna make it 
Then I'm gonna break it 
Till it falls apart 
Hating all the faking 
And shaking while I'm breaking 
Your brittle heart

Brittle heart
Brittle heart
Brittle heart
And my little heart
Goes

Jimmy Brown 
Made of stone 
Charlie Clown 
No way home

Bring on the headless horses
Wherever they may roam
Shive and say the word
Of every lie you've heard

First I'm gonna make it 
Then I'm gonna break it Till it falls apart 
Hating all the faking 
And shaking while I'm breaking 
Your brittle heart 
Your brittle heart 
And our little heart 
Goes

Bring on the new messiah
Wherever he may roam
Bring on the new messiah
Wherever he may roam
Bring on the new messiah
Wherever he
