Muddy Ground Index

Verse 1) I sent a screen of the texts that we traded back and forth Trying to find the center, trying to find the worth But every time I speak, you twist the words around Trying to pin me down to the cold and muddy ground You asked me who was wrong, you asked me to be frank But then you turned it on me like a ship that slowly sank "Who was the most dramatic?" you kept pressing for a name Just another setup for your little finger game. (Verse 2) I said that we were both a little overdramatic and wild We took it to a place that was bitter and defiled But the second that I said it, you claimed I wasn’t clear Using my confusion just to feed into my fear "Ok fine it’s my fault," I said to stop the fight But you snapped right back, "I never said that I was right" You wrap me up in circles till my head is spinning round Defending her actions while you run mine to the ground. (Chorus) You’re blaming everything on me just to keep her hands clean Defending your girlfriend, making me look mean You call it dramatic, you call it total bullshit But you’re the one who forced us to the edge of the pit Yeah, you’re rewriting history to keep her on her throne Defending her honor while you leave me here alone. (Verse 3) You said it wasn't a big deal, that we made a mountain tall But she’s the one who kept on going back behind it all Every time I tried to clear the air and say I'm sorry She dragged it right back to the start of the story And when I tell you partly it was her who kept it live You back me in a corner just to see if I'll survive "So you're blaming everything on her?" you say to code the text Making me feel terrified of what you're saying next. (Verse 4) "Am scared to say yes," because I know how you react You look for any slip just to break our ancient pact I tell you "not everything," I take my little share But you shrug it off like you don't even care "Ok, whatever you say," you type it out so cold Protecting her feelings while my own are bought and sold Then you switch the subject like a sudden traffic light Asking how I'm doing after bleeding out the fight. (Bridge) I’m sitting with my music and it's helping drastically Processing the poison that you handed back to me You say that it's okay, you say that we are fine But you drew a crooked border on a straight and narrow line You shielded her from damage, gave her all the grace And threw the heavy blame right back into my face. (Outro) Go ahead and cover for her, play the hero in her eyes I see the manipulation hidden in your sighs The text script doesn't lie, I can read it clear as day You took her side at school and you threw our bond away Yeah, the friendship is safe, but the truth is finally out You defended your girlfriend and left me in the doubt.
