Beth Crowley - Manipulated lyrics

Everything was perfect
Or was it?
I'm noticing the cracks in our facade
Your pretty lies I bought

I kept on ignoring
The warnings
The artificial happiness took hold
'Til I gave up control
I gave up control

Looking back now
I was so manipulated
I don't know how
I settled for the scraps you gave me
You've got a lot of nerve
Acting like you are just as hurt
As me

I was always quick to
Defend you
Inventing an excuse for every flaw
'Cause I thought that was love

When I said I was done with
Your bullshit
You told me you're the best that I can do
But you won't face the truth
You won't face the truth

Looking back now
I was so manipulated
I don't know how
I settled for the scraps you gave me
You've got a lot of nerve
Acting like you are just as hurt
As me

Oh
Do you ever stop and think
Maybe the best part of you was me
Maybe the best part of you was me

Looking back now
I was so manipulated
I don't know how
I settled for the scraps you gave me
You've got a lot of nerve
Acting like you are just as hurt
As me

Do you ever stop and think
Maybe the best part of you was me
Maybe the best part of you was me
