Manipulator

He called me a crime and a traitor
Lied to keep me closer closer
Uh oh, what a smooth operator
The words they just keep haunting me

So why? why try
To fall into those 'blackest eyes'
So why? why try
To feel another sleepless night

He said I was his favorite flavor
Morning eyes that led him on
Uh-oh, what a manipulator
The highs and the lows they come and go

So why? why try
To fall into your 'blackest eyes'
So why? why try
To feel another sleepless night

The love it kept coming in stages
Giving up my hopes and dreams
And I tried to run but I couldn't
My legs were weak from holding me

So why? (So why)
Why try (Why try)
To fall back in those blackest eyes (So many goddamn lies)
So why? Why try
Another day another lie (So many goddamn lies)
So why? Why try
To break down, sink and drown and die
So why? Why try
To be your only reason why
So why? Why try
