Lyrics Manipulation - Beartooth

Manipulation

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
