Lyrics

Manipulator II

Drag his body back to the truck
I think he took too much
I think he took too much
Everything I feel is coming out my nose
Oh God almighty, this is an overdose
cnd I would rather stay home, than repeat myself but
I will tell you again, 'cause you don't know what it means
You like to push and fucking pull until you rip at the seams
You don't get it, I'm talking about you
Talking about you, you and you and you
Why should I feel bad for the way I feel?
cnd tell me why I should have to explain myself?
You take his hands and I'll take his feet
We can't just leave him there, lying in the street
I can't believe we let him do this
I can't believe I let you talk me into this
No longer will I spend my time fucked up
No longer will I spend my time fucked up
I'm not straight edge, I'd just rather be sober
I'm never looking back I'm not looking for closure
You filled my body with hate
You can never get enough
cll you ever cared about was your stupid fucking
