Safe Lies

We fell into the safety of manipulation

The fearlessness of believing its not out fault

The falsehood of blame

But it was us

We made that choice

We took what we had

And smashed it with a hammer

Then told ourselves that the fall is what broke it

They lied to us

And we lied to ourselves

Who really did the manipulating
