Manipulation - Beartooth

This is manipulation!

Yeah!

I hesitated, got lost again

You saw me as wounded prey

I was a wreck, I was a bloody mess

And you couldn’t look away

You broke me down

So you could take me out

This is isolation

Kept in the dark and waiting

You’re wearing the crown of kingdoms I created

Now I can’t escape it

All of the light is fading

This isn’t trust, this is manipulation

I didn’t say what you wanna hear

And your lips begin to curl

I’m pushing back and now you start acting

Like you gave me the world

You broke me down

So you could take me out

This is isolation

Kept in the dark and waiting

You’re wearing the crown of kingdoms I created

Now I can’t escape it

All of the light is fading

This isn’t trust, this is manipulation

I don’t need, I don’t need, I don’t need you

(This isn’t trust, this is manipulation)

I don’t believe, don’t believe, don’t believe you

(This isn’t trust, this is manipulation)

You’ve got hell to pay

You’ll get what’s coming to you

This is isolation

Kept in the dark and waiting

You’re wearing the crown of kingdoms I created

Now I can’t escape it

All of the light is fading

This isn’t trust, this is manipulation

I don’t need, I don’t need, I don’t need you

(This isn’t trust, this is manipulation)

I don’t believe, don’t believe, don’t believe you

(This isn’t trust, this is manipulation)

This is manipulation

This is manipulation
