lyrics

Shifting Maze

So you will need a coping strategy
To deflate people who suck on your energy
Dodge those who impose their negativity
People who seem to need to spread toxicity
Appear to thrive to undermine
Need to corrupt and waste your time
They will push your buttons to manipulate
Get you second guessing yourself
Hum and har over your words
Convince you that you’re not right in the mind
It’s frightening

Gaslighting

Don’t mean to sound like a self-help video
But it’s important that we all know
Make it clear precisely where you begin
Mark exactly where others end
You can’t bend to emptiness
Fill a hollow ego
They will just try to fuck with your empathy
Best to to build a wall far from their influence
Such vindictive cruelty
Don’t go in their shifting maze

Reflection
Projection
Deception

Now I see
Through to your psyche
Translucent and it’s icy
As you slide from nice to nasty
Can’t be your mirror
There's too many shivers
Time is of short supply

So stop your chip chip chip
And your drip drip drip
And the click click click

It’s just background noise
It’s just background noise
It’s just background noise ....
