Don't Toy With Me

Lyrics

Intro
Don't... toy... with me
Don't... toy... with me

Verse 1
I hear the latch click slow
Like teeth in a steel jaw
Your shadow on the wall
Moves when you don't

Cold hand on the wire
A pulse in the ductwork
You smiled with dead eyes
Then the room went blank

Pre-Chorus
Tick by tick
You test my skin
Push that line
And let me in

Chorus
Don't toy with me
Don't toy with me
I bite back hard
When you pull that string

Don't toy with me
Don't toy with me
I know your shape
In the dark machine

Verse 2
Your voice came through the grate
All static and spite
A name in a metal throat
Chewed up whole

The floor shook twice
Then held its breath
I watched my own hands
Turn mean and cold

Pre-Chorus
Tick by tick
You feed the flame
Push that line
And say my name

Chorus
Don't toy with me
Don't toy with me
I bite back hard
When you pull that string

Don't toy with me
Don't toy with me
I know your shape
In the dark machine

Bridge
Say it again
Say it clean
Who built this cage
And called it me?

Breakdown
Don't toy with me
Don't toy with me
Hands on the glass
Jaw on the seam

Don't toy with me
Don't toy with me
I break the lock
I break the dream

Verse 3
Now the hall goes red
With a pulse like war
Every step you took
Comes back for more

I wear the noise
Like a second skin
You made this monster
So let it in

Chorus
Don't toy with me
Don't toy with me
I bite back hard
When you pull that string

Don't toy with me
Don't toy with me
I know your shape
In the dark machine

Outro
Don't... toy... with me
Don't... toy... with me
