Yeah...ImpactBreaker pretty much said all there was too say about the PV. Although my little point is that after seeing the PV, I'm understanding the title much better. Marionettes, after all, are devoid of emotion. And without emotion, we are basically dead, right? So isn't that a direct reference to the chorus?

We were not born to live
Just putting on a front
And hiding a face
Like the dead

After all, we ARE human, not puppets. So we should act like humans, I think that's what Ayu is trying to say. So I think it's cool that Ayu decided to focus on the face of a puppet, rather than the strings that control it. Nice take.
