Deceiver, pt. 2
I'm scratchin' my head
And countin' the cracks
I'm sitting alone
Observing the facts
It doesn't add up
If I carry the one
But I
Know the answer isn't two
From that time in the rain
An encounter of age
I would pour down the drain
Loving every first page
And to think that I could not
See reality
But I
Know that I cannot blame you
Nothing in my stock could tame you
Chemistry could not confound me
Imagery was all around me
Guiltiness in poorer vision
Not to mention poor decision
Should've blamed a failed connection
For my mistaken direction
(And you'll)
Hear the ring tonight
I'm done with the glowing in the night
You will hear me sing now forevermore
I have become my own deceiver
Become my own deceiver
Such a dizzy daze
To feel fine right here
Not a feeling of craze
'Cept the usual fear
And irrational thought
Has its foot in the door
I am
Hoping that three isn't four
It wasn't that great
I am outing the flame
Cause it's much too late
To be callin' my name
And your hating stare
Tells me all I should know
For I
Know that a friend wouldn't go
In the blink of an eye
You were there, now you're not
With my racing mind
And my stomach a knot
I knew what must be done
Contemplation confirmed
I am
Ending what you haven't earned
I was stricken with awe
By the blue in your eye
Now I'm holding my jaw
What a pleasant surprise
And to think that I cared
You were very much dear
But I
Have no more room left to fear
If you're going to change
Or you're going to yell
I'm ascending to light
Or I'm burnin' in Hell
This is no way to go
This is no way to stop
But I
Know that I'm closing shop
I will feel the sting tonight
I'm done with the keeping of the night
I will feel the sting now forevermore
I am
