The Lie of Choice (Female Version) lyrics

You pause mid and can't tell who gave the call Your hands keep moving though you feel nothing at all A subtle pull you never learn to fight Tell me who's been steering you all this time You keep chewing long after the flavor turns numb Your hands don't listen when you tell them enough Every choice lands just a step off the mark Like someone's writing your moves in the dark That voice cuts in before your thoughts can land Finishes sentences you never planned You call it habit, instinct, or design But habits don't laugh when they cross every line You beg for more like it's something you chase Call it your hunger, but I set the taste You hate yourself when the moment is through So tell me, puppet, was it really you? Was it really you? You miss your sleep, then curse at the dawn Your body drags like your willpower's gone Say it's just stress, say it's part of the grind But stress doesn't whisper commands in your mind You reach for comfort that poisons you slow Then act surprise when it steals what you hold You blame your weakness, your lack of control Convenient story to cover my right You take what hurts like it's something you crave Call it your hunger, but I set the taste You hate yourself when the moment is through So tell me puppets, was it really you? Regret's a trick, I removed your say You never chose any step on the way That fragile shell that you're guarding with pride Why does it fail you if it's truly yours inside? You were the stage and I wrote every seed Every desire disguised as a lead You call it living, I call it a lie You never chose it, you just complied
