Mask of the broken

Title: Puppet Masters
(Verse 1)
In a world where shadows linger, they dance unseen,
Rye the bunny shining bright, a glimmering façade,
But behind the sparkles, whispers of the unclean,
A mask of hope wraps despair in a delicate charade.
(Chorus)
Puppet masters pull the strings,
Each note a silent scream,
In this play of hidden things,
Caught in a fractured dream.
(Verse 2)
Chaos the dog smiles wide, his laughter just a game,
But the echo of his joy is a veil on troubled ground,
Beneath the boundless joy, there’s a flicker of the same,
A mask that blurs the sorrow, where heartache can be found.
(Chorus)
Puppet masters pull the strings,
Each note a silent scream,
In this play of hidden things,
Caught in a fractured dream.
(Verse 3)
Sparkles the dragon flies high, grasping at the sky,
Yet every breath of freedom holds a weight that isn't light,
His joyous flight conceals the pain he keeps nearby,
A mask that hides his struggles from the unforgiving night.
(Chorus)
Puppet masters pull the strings,
Each note a silent scream,
In this play of hidden things,
Caught in a fractured dream.
(Bridge)
Fusion the fox darts fast, through shadows he's entwined,
A blur of effortless motion, yet a heart that feels the strain,
Beneath the guise of freedom, oh, how heavy hangs his mind,
A mask that keeps him running from the truth he can’t explain. 
(Verse 4)
Leona the cat, broken so, hides in her gentle grace,
The world sees only beauty, a life that seems complete,
Yet every purr and whisper guards the fractures she can’t face,
A mask worn to protect her from the sting of lost defeat.
(Chorus)
Puppet masters pull the strings,
Each note a silent scream,
In this play of hidden things,
Caught in a fractured dream.
(Outro)
So we wear our own disguises, in this tangled masquerade,
While the puppet masters linger, pulling tight, no escape made,
In the silence of our laughter, in the depths of our despair,
We search for something real, a truth we can lay bare.
