You are no ordinary girl that I know
Sat in your party dress you play with clever conversation
And if I bend to you
Oh, will you bend to me?

You show your bruises as you sit there on the stairs
And when you smile at me, you show me what I mustn't think of
And if you bend to me
Oh, will I bend to you?

Ah ah, ma-manipulation
Ah ah, I'm well on the way

And we'll follow you to the bad place
And we're all just like pebbles in your way
I am forever leaving clues there on the page
You call me 'honey' but I know you can't yet understand it

And if I bend to you
Oh, will you bend to me?

Ah ah, ma-manipulation
Ah ah, I'm well on the way

And we'll follow you to the bad place
And we're all just like pebbles in your way
We're all just like pebbles in your way
