Manipulative Lyrics by Dragonvy

Phase 1: From the Ashes

2019

I was your friend
And you did me wrong
I don't know why
I have to put it in this song
Maybe it’s for people to know
That I'm not the one
So I guess for 1 million and one things
That were already sung
See I can make my way
Down this path
I don't know why everytime
You look at me like that
Is it because you're
Not as strong as me
Surviving on your own
Is the only key

You're so manipulative
Got me all tied up
You're so manipulative
All the love I had dried up
Getting you on your own
Is a task in itself
Feeling like I'm worthless
It's like I'm living my life on a shelf
You're so manipulative
Got me all tied up
You're so manipulative
All the love I had dried up
Getting you on your own
Is a task in itself
Feeling like I'm worthless
It's like I'm living my life on a shelf

Seeing the reasons
For why you do these things
If it is that easy
Then I'm gonna sing
I go a couple days out of my way
Just to start again
Into this notebook, where it begins
Is where I stain my pen
Gathered all my things
And now it's time to go
Interesting enough
I still have my own flow
Only reason I started
So you wouldn’t get the best of me
Maybe I should repeat myself
A dream to me is everything

You're so manipulative
Got me all tied up
You're so manipulative
All the love I had dried up
Getting you on your own
Is a task in itself
Feeling like I'm worthless
It's like I'm living my life on a shelf
You're so manipulative
Got me all tied up
You're so manipulative
All the love I had dried up
Getting you on your own
Is a task in itself
Feeling like I'm worthless
It's like I'm living my life on a shelf

Seeing me how I'm doing
Checking way too frequently
Weighing my options out
Searching for stability
Trying to find words to write
Sometimes it's hard
But with you on my mind
It wasn't that hard to start
Catching myself delving
Too much in the past
Sometimes these issues come first
Maybe your first moved last
Creating new beginnings
More importantly without you
It feels much better
Than to be stuck to you like glue

The monster you never wanted to see became that within me and I don't regret it because it also made me stronger than I ever realized and more than I cared to know
