Mitchel Emms - Deception

Deception, behind my back.
I'm getting ready for an attack,
gotta put up the walls
cause shots are firing soon.
Deception, please give me a break,
I've had just about all I can take.
So many faces, so many lies,
can't you give me an honest girl or guy?
So much for love, so much for friends,
who never follow through on their amends
so in goes the knife, defenses down.
I wish I had the money to escape this town.

So there you are, and I am here,
Waving goodbye. Deceptions ready to die.
There you are, and I am here,
Questioning why I'm here tonight.
To tell you how I've been down and out?
cause it's times like these when I have
to free my mind.

Deception split my heart in two,
I'm not the same person as I was in youth,
I'm a heartless junkie, Ignorant of the truth.
Deception keeps me up for a fight,
now an honest person walks into my life.
Can your solitude help me divorce this strife?

So there you are, and I am here,
Waving goodbye. Deceptions ready to die.
There you are, and I am here,
Questioning why I'm here tonight.
To tell you how I've been down and out?
Well, I'ts only times like these when I
meet someone like you.

Won't you free my mind?
