Deceit: Verse 3
All the other guys
Say that you're a liar.
Like I'm a piece of paper
That you'll set on fire.
You're so beautiful,
But is that an excuse
For the way that you lie?
I can't take the abuse!
I guess I gave you the rope,
Hoping you wouldn't hang me.
I'm suffocating now,
I can barely breathe.
But somehow I still
Can find the breath to say
That even though you're a demon,
I love you anyway.
