lyrics

—Button Eyes—
I was dreaming I was in another mirror maze
Puppets, dolls, and mannequins, as usual, would gaze
I walked into another room, and there upon the floor
Was Button Eyes just staring through me, opening a door
He reached into my memories that I could not recall
He added things I'm not quite sure had happened there at all
All the toys that I once had, laid out for me to see
I can't for certain know that they are from my memory
See, puppet lips tell secrets to you that you shouldn't know
Button Eyes gets off on making sure you watch the show

Button Eyes…Puppet lips?
Button Eyes…Puppet lips?

You'll never know, but here comes the puppet show!

Who's that peeping through the blinds? It's puppet lips
What year was it my timeline changed, and things like this were rearranged?
Who's that playing with my mind? It's puppet lips
That instant recall that you get when you know that time’s been reset
You never know when you’ll find dream stuff of another kind in puppet lips

Button Eyes…Puppet lips?

Sneaking sticky sour somethings in your ear, my dear
Don’t fear—you needn’t know the meaning of my scheming
Steering where you’re dreaming
Beaming subtle notions
All the motions of the branches blowing
Are components in the potion
Which for you, my rose, I’ve chosen
Love is frozen, you and I will be forever tethered
Frosted hearts as tough as leather of the pterodactyl
Digging black holes in the flimsy fabric
Of the minds of simple sheep
We’ll reap the harvest of the larvae
In the beds of babes asleep

Months have passed, and here I thought, "It's just a funhouse dream"
But I guess this time it was much more than it would seem
He’s nothing like my veggie pals, who like to dance and sing
He brought along his shadow friends—they’ve been here since last spring
He gazed in my direction, and I felt an eerie spark
Then all at once we were there, playing marbles in the dark
He whispered something to me softly that no one should hear
And all that I was left with was a ringing in my ear
See, Button Eyes knows all too well what things are in my head
Please give me time to think about the things that he has said

Who's that peeping through the blinds? It's puppet lips
And just like that, you catch that spark that leaves you wandering in the dark
Who's that playing with my mind? It's puppet lips
Button Eyes, Button Eyes, puppet lips, puppet lips
You never know when you’ll find dream stuff of another kind in puppet lips

You'll never know, but here comes the puppet show!
