Deceiver

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Nicholas Matthews] It's all the same to me, so you can go 'Cause you're on your own (Thought you had me fucking fooled, not even close) [Pre-Chorus: Nicholas Matthews] Caught off guard like a deer in headlights Tried to hide the bottle behind your bedside light There hasn't been a colder night in my entire life [Chorus] You're hard to avoid and somehow unaware That I can't stand the sound of your voice or dry the tears of fifteen years Took all the abuse, walked away black and blue And betrayed me in the worst way you knew, so now I'm over you So now I'm over you (Now, I'm over) [Verse 2: Nicholas Matthews] Before our desperate times When we first laid eyes on fireflies and Indiana nights I recall the year was '99 [Interlude: All] (Yeah, get the fuck out of here!) (You motherfucker!) (Yeah!) (You motherfucker!) (Yeah!) [Pre-Chorus: Nicholas Matthews] Caught off guard like a deer in headlights Tried to hide the bottle behind your bedside light There hasn't been a colder night in my entire life [Chorus: Nicholas Matthews] You're hard to avoid and somehow unaware That I can't stand the sound of your voice or dry the tears of fifteen years Took all the abuse, walked away black and blue And betrayed me in the worst way you knew, so now I'm over you [Bridge: Nicholas Matthews and Bradley Iverson] More afraid than ashamed I can't express enough the lengths I am willing to go Filled my veins with disdain to save your withered bones Hope you know, beautiful, I'm better on my own [Chorus: Nicholas Matthews] You're hard to avoid and somehow unaware That I can't stand the sound of your voice or dry the tears of fifteen years Took all the abuse, walked away black and blue And betrayed me in the worst way you knew, so now I'm over you [Outro: Nicholas Matthews] Caught off guard like a deer in headlights Tried to hide the bottle behind your bedside light There hasn't been a colder night in my entire life There was not much of you left that I cared to lose When you betrayed me in the worst way you knew, so now I'm over you So now I'm over you
