How fragile we all are
Words break our souls
Until we have nothing to endure
Still we come back, asking for more, " Use, me, want me, because that makes me feel needed."
Who do you think you are, taking my feelings for granted? 
You twist and turn until...

This whimsical notion he's not in the wrong,
He uses pity to manipulate and control all along,
Once he plays on your heart strings, he draws you in,
And if things don't go his way your at fault for his sins,
Apologetic, yet right after, he must throw back...

Waterfall splashes
falling through eyelashes,
Crocodile, maybe real
not sure how to feel,
Neurotic or an actress
I'm mildly in distress,
Witnessing this sight
I could almost take the bite
from emotional fishhooks
I avoid and trust my gut,
Her streaming salty tears
won't make me swerve my steer,
Sticking firm to my beliefs
I ignore this principle...

You want to keep me
by your side to be 
used like a dirty rag. 
Is that all I'm worth,
I am more.
You couldn't love me, 
yet you desire me, 
but your heart belongs
to another one. 
Any time I leave, 
you cry as if you
lost your heart,
just...

A breathing habit.
Undeniable addiction.
Pin pricks of the frontal cortex,
Social acupuncture..
Easy subjects.

Standing before your face,
Or alone in my own meditation.
I can't stop myself,
To break apart your mental station.

Surgically navigating the words.
Is like numbing one's brain.
Pinpointing thoughts with them,
Is controlling what they say.

Why can't I loose.
My failure...

Some ghost in peoples mind need to control,
every aspect of circumstance to enroll.
The raging spirit in constant demand to chase illusion,
with sweet words, drama and phony conclusion.
The fear of not being in charge by all means,
destroys all good attention in short coming’s not seen.
Hidden fragile...

Your strings are tied around my wrist
ankles, chest, stomach, lips, and cheeks 
But for now they dangle.
A short time where my movement is mine.

Until you decided to tighten your grip
Making it hard to breathe
Sometimes hard to eat 
My hands are no longer mine 
My feet...

Your name is known throughout the land.
Everywhere your surname is spoken, it strikes fear or outrage among the public.
You take pleasure in turning others against each other.
Whether it is family or bitter rivals, you push their buttons with utter delight.
While they fight each other, you...

Manipulator
Manipulator of the corn and sun making waves of amber grains learning to be 
future time traveling now just marking time taking up spaces meant to be used 
by people just like the eye peggy sue and bobby billy ginger lee using all the

Use you I will over again
Feeding off your innocence 
The pain just near to begin

Disposing your remains
After I’ve engorged enough
Searching for the next victim
Won’t be all that tough

Gaining what I need
Taking it at will
You’ll never stop a lion
Whose about to make its kill

You have everything...

You always try to manipulate me and make me feel bad
But I always fall victim to your charm and that makes me mad
Your good looks are all you have got
You are a jerk, you're lucky you're hot
I am a good person with a very big...

Dog cross my path several times
Dog bark all night when there is no fight
Dog jumping up and down the solid roof
Dog is pulling and tearing my rubber shoes
Dog is telling the truth on two feet, 
And dog is listening to your heart beat
Dog is walking...

Try to do good
Smile. Be nice
When asked for a favor
Don't have to think twice
I 'm charitable, generous
Believe that kindness is key
Trust good karma is cyclical
It'll come back to me
But disillusion and pain
Is all I get in return
Lies and backstabbing
Somehow tables get turned
I'm portrayed as a...
