Don’t you know it’s true, I lie and lie and lie to you.
And lie and lie and lie.
Well at least I’m honest.
Take you for granted, I take advantage
Take what I need, I’ll promise then vanish
No consequences for my sins when you show no damage.
It’s hard to prove my crimes.
Leave you in the dark at daylight
Don’t bite the hand that feeds your ego
Teeter on the steeple.
It’s salesmanship, balancing.
And therein lies the paradigm.
What’s yours is mine if I invest the time
Grift grips, ripping through their lives.
Call me selfish, or even perverse
When I take what I want
But don’t care who get’s hurt.
Backhanded blessings, but worthy addressing
You get what you give, when no love is pressing.
Oh how I’ve mislead you I lied and lied to make it through and lied and lied and lied Visions of the blinded.
Sincere serenity, fabricated fantasy
Deliver the harm with the softest kiss
Disregard your every wish
Monitor my every need
Neglecting you so lovingly
A twist of fate, the rules of chance.
Regretful of your circumstance.
