[Lyric] Oni (Memorist)

[Intro]
You can say what you want
I'm anything but your monster
No one is listening when you speak
You can say what you want
You can say what you want
No one is listening when you speak

[Verse 1]
I've been waiting for a chance to speak my mind
To repay the pain I've felt in kind
Because you seemed to take pride
In slowly twisting the knife
I'm sick of these surroundings
How could you create wrong from right?
How could you act like you never told a lie?
You made this eye for an eye
And now I'm losing sight
This feels like never ending

[Chorus]
Is this penance for your sins?
Was I a fool to let you in?
You instigate and you never even flinched
I capitulate but you can't erase me
Oh, what a twisted web you spin
[Verse 2]
I've been wondering when they all might see
I'm not who you've made me out to be
From gentle seeds grow gentle beasts
It was always you, the worst part of me
How will you justify your greed?
You would have taken more than you could ever need
Between the lies that you weave
And all the secrets you keep
You'll never see me bleed
You'll never see me bleed

[Pre-Chorus]
I know you want to see me swing
But would you stand and watch for the hanging?

[Chorus]
Is this penance for your sins?
Was I a fool to let you in?
You instigate and you never even flinched
I capitulate but you can't erase me
Oh, what a twisted web you spin

[Bridge]
Is this where the story ends?
[?]
Is this where the story ends?
Is this penance for your sins?
Was I a fool to let you in?
I hope you choke on the [?]
And when the ice breaks beneath your feet
You collapse and fall in underneath
[Chorus]
Is this penance for your sins?
Was I a fool to let you in?
You instigate and you never even flinched
I capitulate but you can't erase me
Oh, what a twisted web you spin

[Outro]
You can say what you want
You can say what you want
No one is listening when you speak
You can say what you want
You can say what you want
I'm anything but your monster
