Of Mice & Men
Deceiver/Deceived
[Intro]
Go!
Deceiver and deceived
[Verse 1]
Do you believe everything you hear
Or is it only what you see?
Is everything really black and white
Or is it all a shade of grey?
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me
Is your head in the clouds
Or buried underground?
[Chorus]
Lie, deny, evade
And bend the truth
Until it starts to break (Distort reality)
So fake, persuade, betray
Then tell yourself that everyone's to blame
Deceiver and deceived
Deceiver and deceived
(Deceiver and deceived)
[Verse 2]
Have you been sold the river full of gold?
The castle on the hill of sand?
Do you now see the forest for the trees
Or do you keep falling for the sleight of hand?
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me
Is your head in the clouds
Or buried underground?
[Chorus]
Lie, deny, evade
And bend the truth
Until it starts to break (Distort reality)
So fake, persuade, betray
Then tell yourself that everyone’s to blame
Deceiver and deceived
[Bridge]
Truth is not relative
Truth is absolute
To reject truth is a choice
And every choice has a consequence
Go!
[Pre-Chorus]
Is your head in the clouds
Or buried underground?
[Chorus]
Lie, deny, evade
Fake, persuade, betray
Lie, deny, evade
And bend the truth
Until it starts to break (Distort reality)
So fake, persuade, betray
Then tell yourself that everyone's to blame (Distort reality)
Deceiver and deceived
