I think it's safe to say that "Puppet Dance" is about the tragedy of losing a loved one. There are so many questions one asks oneself following the death of someone who's held dear, and this song really captures that.
"Why'd you have to leave me?"
"Oh my Lord, is it right?" (Did he/she have to die?)
"Was there something that I could have done?"
I get the feeling that Hodgson must have lost someone he loved very dearly in order to write a song with as much meaning and emotion as this one.
