Hanging By A Thread

The way you made danger sound When it comes from your mouth You hid it well With the stories you tell Manipulation sounds so nice When you're singing your Two-sided lullabies I couldn't tell How was I to know? How could I know? Hanging by a thread Your voice in my head Nothing makes sense Don't know what's coming next I'll hang by a thread I just wanna go to bed Let the sun rise and set Thought you were a friend But you had other plans I'll hang by a thread I misheard you every time You twisted my arm And threatened the knife What the hell? How low do you have to go To pray on the weak And vulnerable You gave me hell But how was I to know? How could I know? Now I'm hanging by a thread Got your voice in my head Nothing makes sense Don't know what's coming next I'll hang by a thread I just wanna go to bed Let the sun rise and set Thought you were a friend But you had other plans I'll hang by a thread Red flags and warning signs I sipped you like white wine And when I'm sober Coming down from your hurt Paper thin and cold as stone But fuck it, I still made it home Bathing in the dread And all that's left Is hanging by a thread But I will burn the ends The frayed can mend But I can't pretend to Hang by a thread I just wanna go to bed Let the sun rise and set Thought you were a friend But you had other plans I'll hang by a thread How was I to know? How could I know?
