[Intro]
This is manipulation
Yeah

[Verse 1]
I hesitated, got lost again
You saw me as wounded prey
I was a wreck, I was a bloody mess
And you couldn't look away

[Pre-Chorus]
You broke me down
So you could take me out

[Chorus]
This is isolation, kept in the dark and waiting
You're wearing the crown of kingdoms I created
Now I can't escape it, all of the light is fading
This isn't trust, this is manipulation

[Verse 2]
I didn't say what you wanna hear
And your lips began to curl
I'm pushing back and now you start acting
Like you gave me the world

[Pre-Chorus]
You broke me down
So you could take me out

[Chorus]
This is isolation, kept in the dark and waiting
You're wearing the crown of kingdoms I created
Now I can't escape it, all of the light is fading
This isn't trust, this is manipulation

[Bridge]
I don't need, I don't need, I don't need you
This isn't trust, this is manipulation
I don't believe, don't believe, don't believe you
This isn't trust, this is manipulation

[Breakdown]
You've got hell to pay
You'll get what's coming to you

[Chorus]
This is isolation, kept in the dark and waiting
You're wearing the crown of kingdoms I created
Now I can't escape it, all of the light is fading
This isn't trust, this is manipulation

[Outro]
I don't need, I don't need, I don't need you
This isn't trust, this is manipulation
I don't believe, don't believe, don't believe you
This isn't trust, this is manipulation
This is manipulation, this is manipulation
