Deceit

Out on the pavement
You left me twice now today
The tall buildings around me
All take a bow with love
I feel fine I feel fine
I feel fine I feel fine
And if I had a word to say
I hope it won’t be a lie
Even if I know it might
The boots have all trampled on me
And I don’t look quite the same
The street and her lightbulbs
Chant to me with grace
So you lied and I feel fine
I feel fine I feel
And if I had a word to say
I hope it won’t be a lie
Even if I know it might
And if I had a place to stay
It’s clear that you’re not my type
And now it’s turning cold
Say our love is getting old
Even if I know you’re wrong
Deceit is a word that sounds so sweet in your mouth
The bitter and rusty taste that runs down my throat
Deceit is a word that sounds
Deceit is a word that sounds   so sweet  so sweet  
And if I had a word to say
I hope it won’t be a lie
Even if I know it might
And if I had a place to stay
It’s clear that you’re not my type
And now it’s turning cold
Claim our love is getting old
Even if I know you’re wrong
I’m scratching knees and palms as I’m hitting the ground
It hurts so much for me to hear I won’t be the one
Even if I know you’re wrong
