Chorus: Look away, look away, I can't bear
|
To be watching the love they are sharing
|
There are too many years I must stay
|
Every touch, every kiss is a knife in my heart
|
Oh child, look away
|
|
1. One never knows from beginnings at all
|
Just what will be the ends
|
Lost in the lives of my puppets
|
Never quite touched by friends
|
What I have made of my chances
|
Seemed logical in that hour
|
Choices will haunt forever
|
No one has all the power
|
|
2. Given a strange opportunity
|
I chose the road to hell
|
One who's been taken by fever
|
Acts without thinking too well
|
All of the strings I was pulling
|
And all of the cages closed
|
Left me alone in this wasteland
|
Hidden and so exposed
|
|
3. I will have all of eternity
|
To regret what I have done
|
Hours alone in this darkness
|
And days full of torture and sun
|
All of my memories dancing
|
All the repentance that sings
|
I am the puppetmaster
|
Always without the strings
|
