Deception
[Verse 1]
Well she had me out 'til four in the morning
Playing games with my heart, told me have no worries
Get lost in the night
And let yourself be free
She was about five three, taking all of my money
Bright blue eyes and a smile so cunning
And i tried to fight it
But it all just came to be

[Pre-Chorus]
And the taste of her lips were so so sweet
But her lipstick seemed to poison me
And i knew i really had to leave
But those devil eyes got the best of me
And my gut was on fire trying to get out
But the touch of her hand kept me around
And i knew that this was all so wrong
But her dark spirit, it held so strong

[Chorus]
Welcome to our town of deceptive things
Say goodbye to yesterday
'Cause now we got you on a leash
Was the pleasure so worth it
Now can't you see
We are controlling you
You had your chance to leave
[Verse 2]
Well I met this man in the town of deception
He could barely stand lived a life of rejection
So he turned to the needle
And i guess the needle won
And i saw that girl living on her own
Just tempting people getting them disowned
But don't give in, it'll leave you broke
Like us addicts living in this town so cold

[Pre-Chorus]
At first it all was so comforting
Took my pain away made me feel complete
'Til i woke up in this town of thieves
And my life was gone I lost everything
The taste of her lips were so so sweet
But I see it now they poisoned me
Now I'm, in this black sanctuary
And there's no way out
Don't you be like me

[Chorus]
Welcome to our town of deceptive things
Say goodbye to yesterday
'Cause now we got you on a leash
Was the pleasure so worth it
Now can't you see
We are controlling you
You had your chance to leave
[Bridge]
Turn around, let's turn around
Let's, break the walls
Let's, break the walls
Let's, burn it down
Burn it down
Let's, kill the monster
Tricked us all
It's not too late
It's not too late
To, break the darkness
To break the dawn
It's not too late
It's not too late
Father come down
Father come down

[Coda]
And I'm burning the town of deceptive things
Say goodbye to yesterday
'Cause I'm breaking off this leash
The darkness is gone
Now I've found, my peace
The sky is falling down
The prisoners are free
