about

This was going to be an industrial-trash kind of arrangement, but I was having trouble with my midi-controller communicating with this old PC. So instead, here's a first-take-as-I-change-everything-but-the-words version.

This is inspired by all the narcissistic manipulators.

lyrics

You warm your prey With smiles conveyed
To be their closest confidant
Nurture with care Slowly ensnare With agreeable plots
Ideas, soft tones Become their own how you tie the knot

Sometimes a place to shed your skin
Shirt off your back, a helping hand
Can make them do what you them to
Alcohol and pills Seal the deal
when you can’t otherwise get through
Whatever it takes to make them play on team you

Late calls and texts Promises are best
Whether broken, borrowed or blue
Hearts are like clay Games of charades
Poker face with a pair of twos
Utopian theme A little off key
It will get better soon

When things don’t go their way
You’ve always something to say
To make it all seem ok
Alcohol and pills
Seal the deal
when you can’t otherwise get through
Whatever it takes to make them play on team you
