Manipulator

Stamped with the mark of last night’s feed
The smell of flesh and shame will remain
Many have paid the price on your skin
You rot from within

Look at you now
You sell yourself well
Appealing to vain and hollow taste
You find it fun
The joy in the chase
You will manipulate

Sadness is never easy to kill
And anger will stay with the weak
You made your bed and now you can’t sleep
So I’ll keep you company

There is no end to your shallow heart
And no forgiveness for the pain that you’ve caused
Sooner or later your lips will go bitter
You lost the diamond while chasing the glitter

Look at you now
Oh you sell yourself well
You find it fun, oh the joy in the chase

Sadness is never easy to kill
And anger will stay with the weak
You made your bed and now you can’t sleep
So I’ll keep you company

What have you done
The monster in you made a monster in me
