The rain beats down upon my head as I walk out of this room Soaking my clothes straight to the bone, penetrating my shoes The sun set down on the horizon and hasn't been seen for days Must have gone out for some lunch and had a lot to say This life, I want it back This life, you can have it back CHORUS: Cause they've been my Gepetto They could pull my strings Playing tug of war with my life at stake It's a battle that we can win The forecast calls for sun, I hope he'll show his face I've been set aside by nothing I've done, falling under grace The sun comes up over the horizon and quickly leaves me dry The reflection on the puddles so strong, I have to close my eyes This life, I want it back This life, you can have it back CHORUS: Cause they've been my Gepetto I was tangled in the strings Playing tug of war with my life at stake It's a battle that we can win It's a battle that we can win I'll never walk on the moon and I'll never parts the seas I don't want to be my own again, want to do things I never dreamed This life, I don't want it back This life, I don't want it back Cause now you're my Gepetto You could pull my strings But you'll be my Jiminy Cricket You give me life and set me free
