Take my words and turn them into gold
I'm stuck in a room filled, filled with blanket hope
I'm just a vagabond, I'm standing still (I'm standing 
still)
I'm trying to get off this carousel
Dance dance dance dance my marionette just like when we 
were kids...
There are just some things that you'll never forget 
(never forget)
Dance dance dance dance my marionette just like when we 
were kids...
There are just some things that you'll never forget 
(never forget)
I can't stop dreaming that I am a king
Don't shake me, don't wake me, I am a king
I can't stop dreaming that I am a king
Don't shake me, don't wake me, I am a king!
There's no question in what it takes
What it takes to lose, so soon to lose
So bring me something beautiful
So I can find the inspiration
To become something more 
Than who I see, than who I am
Creep down a place I used to love
To a place where dreams watch me grow
Creep down a place I think I used to love
To a bed where dreams watch me grow
Dance dance dance dance my marionette just like when we 
were kids...
There are just some things that you'll never forget 
(never forget)
Dance dance dance dance my marionette just like when we 
were kids...
There are just some things that you'll never forget 
(never forget)
I'm running out of air, I'm running out of air
Out of air!
I'm not giving up on you, I'm not giving up on you
Please don't give up on me, God don't give up on me
I can't help but feel I've collapsed
With the weight of the world 
Applauding me, applauding my errors
I am a dissolution to every heart
That's ever given up their clocks 
To give me their life
Dance (dance) dance, my marionette
Dance (dance) dance, my marionette
