Deception

Deception and scripted truths Has weakened us with lies Oh pitiful foolish ones Don't you see, Can't you see Our wills are breaking And we don't seem to care We were once innocent Purity painted our souls Yet it was taken, And twisted Placing us into this selfish phase That feels so good, To good Most of the time * Look at how hopeless we all look now Intoxicated youth with no feelings or compassion We have turned our hearts black inside * Hidden behind a mask Such a pretty face, that has gained our trust With just one little smile They say looks can be decieving And this monster, we should fear Above all else Blinded to the intentions That induce us with promises And temptations we cvan't pass up We watch ourselves go these wicked ways Willing to give in, With nothing left to save Or at least nothing worth the time * Intoxicated youth look at your deadend futures Fallen into wasted lives by a security comfort That holds us in it's arms, with an empty hateful love *
