This Deception
This deception it cuts no deep
And your perception
Is cloudy and weak
To the ones departed
Blame ominous skies
Can't you see the look in my eyes
The sight of your face it brings me pause
And the sound of your voice just because
I thought you were dead
I wished you were dead
Gone to the sound of applause
The promises we keep
While all the others sleep
Vows to the maker
Now who's nothing but a taker
Life is just another sin
It's either you want out or in
Say your prayers to the setting sun
And go back to square one
All that glitters cannot be gold
I've seen your smile
It feels so cold, so
Another day another dollar
Hear these words and you'll know who I'm after
The sight of your face it brings me pause
And the sound of your voice it's just because
I thought you were dead
Wished you were dead
Gone to the sound of applause
The promises we keep
While all the others sleep
Vows to the maker
Now who's nothing but a taker
Life is just another sin
It's either you want not or in
Say your prayers to the setting sun
And go back to square one
Cash your memories on the table
It's whether you're willing or able
Say your prayers
To the setting sun
And go back to square one
As far as the eye can see,
Everything looks black to me
Nothing to hack it up
Back-handed compliments
Just fuck things up
I would rather die, and run you down
Then go on living
Bleed bleed bleed by example
Life is just another sin
It's either you want out or in
Say your prayers to the setting sun
And go back to square one
Cash your memories on the table
It's whether you're willing or able
Say your prayers
To the setting sun
And go back to square one
Bleed bleed bleed by example
Go back to square one
