Askew Lyrics – Virtual Perish

Askew Lyrics by Virtual Perish

Stuck in a high-strung prison of anxiety
Created by your need to preach
Filling the air with all your pharisaic vitriol
Antagonistic activism making it bleed

Twist intentions, opposition demonized
You’re the fulcrum making the swing
Find an opening and exploit it til you win
Don’t bother understanding, you’ll just stick ’em on a wing!

Vicious. Pernicious. Insistence [Gaslighter!
Cheating. Deceiving. Disbelieving [Liar!
Divide. Deny. Dehumanize [Manipulator!
I can see right through you!

Squeeze out the nuance
See the truth traded throughout
Pursuit of skewed prudence
Abusing your influence

Pace, lead [Gaslightеr!
Embrace greed [Gaslighter!
Rape mе [Gaslighter!
Force feed!

I am not another victim
You just wanna feel control!
Call you out so you can witness
Nobody here is fooled!

Are you so scared you gotta twist up
All our words to be malicious!
So you can hide from all suspicion
Everyone knows the symptoms!

Arrogant lividness, bolstered by your sycophants
Thinking that you’ve made a difference
Hide behind your plausible deniability
Details you retell – I always look malevolent

You think the people like you, their approval’s tacit
When they don’t try to stop you from spewing your acid?
Afflicted insecurity, you’ll never find your apogee
So go ahead – I wanna see your histrionic misery

Dithered. Embittered. So triggered [Gaslighter!
Stiffened. Don’t listen. Unforgiven [Liar!
Repeating. Deceiving. Deleting [Manipulator!
I can see right through you!

Never empathize
You antagonize
Hypnotize, politicize
And sanitize what’s criticized!

Pace, lead [Gaslighter!
Embrace greed [Gaslighter!
Rape me [Gaslighter!
Force feed! [Gaslighter!]

Enemy identity
Enemy identity
Enemy identity
Enemy identity

Enemy identity
Enemy identity
Enemy identity
I am not another victim

You just wanna feel control!
Call you out so you can witness
Nobody here is fooled!
Are you so scared you gotta twist up

All our words to be malicious!
So you can hide from all suspicion
Everyone knows the symptoms!
Gaslighting is defined as a form of emotional abuse where the victim is made to question their grasp on reality

You’re probably being gaslit if you hear any of the following
“You’re overreacting.”
“Are you sure that’s what I said?”
“All I did was speak my mind, and you attacked me.”

“You know you’re being awfully abusive or irrational right now.”
And my personal favorite
Falsely summarizing things you’ve said with phrases like
“So what you’re basically saying is…”

And I know where the f#ck it all comes from. This insecurity of yours
You’re so insecure that everyone’s a threat to you
And you can’t feel safe unless they’re demonized!
Feigning your confusion isn’t working!

Breaking your illusion’s satisfying!
Sick of your delusions you’re inviting!
Getting your conclusions seen the hard way!
I won’t accept abuse and I’m not crazy!

I will not excuse it cuz you’re guilty!
Your grip on me is loosened and it’s shifting!
Time to face the music, you will get this or die!
I am not another victim

You just wanna feel control!
Call you out so you can witness
Nobody here is fooled!
Are you so scared you gotta twist up

All our words to be malicious!
So you can hide from all suspicion
Everyone knows the symptoms!
Silence all dissent

But I know you comprehend
I see you all pretend
As you try to condescend!
Pace, lead [Gaslighter!

Embrace greed [Gaslighter!
Rape me [Gaslighter!
Force feed! [Gaslighter!
f#ck you! [Gaslighter!

f#ck you! [Gaslighter!
f#ck you! [Gaslighter!
You! [Gaslighter!]
