Manipulate

You hide behind your anger
Hold a light up to my flaws
Projecting onto me all of the hate from those before
Burnt tongues have kissed teeth a thousand times
Don't swallow down your pride just to throw it up on me

Say what you mean
Don't manipulate
I won't be your escape
Say what you mean
All of our mistakes silence our decay

So fabricate excuses
I won't sit and bear the weight of all your bitter sadness
It's more than I can take
No more animosity or unwanted remorse
Just stubborn rusted pity that's overrun its course

Speak before you suffocate

Say what you mean
Don't manipulate
I won't be your escape
Say what you mean
All of our mistakes silence our decay

Dig your own grave
Asphyxiate from all your wasted breath

Say what you mean
Don't manipulate
I won't be your escape
Say what you mean
All of our mistakes silence our decay

(Dig your own grave)
Say what you mean
(Asphyxiate)
Don't manipulate
(From all your wasted breath)
I won't be your escape

(Dig your own grave)
Speak now
(Asphyxiate)
Speak now
(From all your wasted breath)
Speak now or you'll never rest in peace
