lyrics

HIM:
I built my house on this precipice
So I could see far around
And spend my time dangling
‘tween the ups and the downs.

You could come and visit
But you
Better not stay
These walls become constricted
When night swallows day.

Suggestion –
I’ll be the only one around you
You turn me on
In that dress you hated
A hermit’s song
When all the world confounds you
Let’s come undone,
Manipulated.

So give your inhibitions a suspicious kiss
I feel you shudder
See you resist
This world needs action,
It’s a violent, beautiful mess.

They want us scared and lonely
But this could be the only
Manipulation we’re gonna need
And if we run for covers,
I’ll pull the blankets on us,
Draw the blinds and keep the receipts.

Suggestion –
I’ll be the only one around you
You turn me on
In that dress you hated
A hermit’s song
When all the world confounds you
Let’s come undone,
Manipulated
Manipulated
Manipulated.
