Bend - Nine Shrines

You always got your way

Even when you’re wrong

You knew the things to say

To really turn me on

Now when I speak your name

I have to bite my tongue

I won’t be the victim

Now that I’ve lost all my faith in you

It’s like I’m looking in from the outside

Searching for the truth in your eyes

To watch you tear me down from the inside

Fill my head with lies

I knew the games you played

But I still let you win

I always wore the shame

For each and every sin

Now when you cast the blame

My knee won’t bend

I won’t be the victim

Now that I’ve lost my faith in you

If I could find the words to say what’s on my mind

They’d bury you alive

You let a branch of lies take root in all your sin

You are the cancer in my skin
