pov: you realized you've been a puppet your entire life and you can't stop dancing | Shadow Puppet

Subscribe to the puppet show:    / @cityechocloud   pov: you realized the strings attached to your life were never actually yours. 🧵🎭👁️ Breaking away from all standard pop structures, "Shadow Puppet" is a masterclass in Art Pop and industrial horror-ASMR. We replaced standard drums with the sounds of zippers, scissors, and wet tongue clicks to create a track that feels like it's happening inside your own head. This isn't a breakup song; it's a psychological thriller set to a 110 BPM hypnotic bass groove. Don't look behind the curtain. 💅💀 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Music Information: song: Shadow Puppet artist: City Echo Cloud genre: Art Pop / Industrial Whisper-Pop mood: Haunting, Psychological, Hypnotic, Twisted, Cold -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lyrics: I hold the string... you move the feet... don't look back... The ceiling light is flickering in blue I am watching every motion that you do The invisible wire is tied to your wrist You are moving through a layer of mist I hear your breathing behind the thin wall I am waiting for the moment you fall The heavy door is locked with a pin I am peeling away your paper thin skin The puppet head is hanging low! I am controlling all the show! Nobody will ever know! I am pulling on a fragile, fragile thread! Filling up the empty, empty, empty head! Painting all the white, white, white to red! Wishing you were already, already dead! Yeah, pulling on a fragile, fragile thread! Lying in the cold and static bed! Oh-oh-oh! The monster has been fed! Yeah, hanging by a thread! I found your voice inside a glass jar I know exactly where the hidden locks are I count the shadows on the nursery floor I am pacing back and forth by the door You think you are walking out of the maze But you are stuck in a hypnotic haze I snip the anchor and let you drift Searching for a soul that you cannot lift The puppet head is hanging low! I am controlling all the show! Nobody will ever know! I am pulling on a fragile, fragile thread! Filling up the empty, empty, empty head! Painting all the white, white, white to red! Wishing you were already, already dead! Yeah, pulling on a fragile, fragile thread! Lying in the cold and static bed! Oh-oh-oh! The monster has been fed! Yeah, hanging by a thread! Static... static... you are only static... Logic... logic... it is all automatic... Dramatic... dramatic... it is so dramatic... Traumatic... traumatic... look how traumatic... I am pulling on a fragile, fragile thread! Filling up the empty, empty, empty head! Painting all the white, white, white to red! Wishing you were already, already dead! Yeah, pulling on a fragile, fragile thread! Lying in the cold and static bed! Oh-oh-oh! The monster has been fed! Yeah, hanging by a thread! Just a thread... Empty head... Look at you... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Copyright / License: ℗ & © 2026 City Echo Cloud. All rights reserved.
