Deception Lyrics

Better wake up before it's all gone
Better wake up before it's all gone

Half wrapped in a leopard print sex swing
The beat is shit and I'm 'bout to make a new slang
If your momma was a bed of kites then we could fly away
And fuck this night right

I feel the brick wall hit
You've never been me before
I feel the will I trick
Self-deprecation to settle the score
Here comes the reaper to erase what I've become
I won't be plastic and neutered and numb
I won't be plastic and neutered and numb
I won't be plastic and neutered and numb

I couldn't help it made me wonder
If you're the weight that pulled us under
All of it was make believe, all of it was make believe
And now I'm pulling back the covers
Thought I could trust you like no other
All of it was make believe, all of it was make believe
Deception

Cordial graces, smiling faces, back and forth
Antiquated, overrated, social whores
I don't need you
I don't need you anymore
I don't need you
I don't need you anymore

And there's a code for people like you
Always keeping score
And you will never make me like you
Because I'm colder than before
You made me this way
You made me this way

Pay your debt, don't suffocate
If you're baking it, don't eat the cake
If you're faking it, then show 'em the bait
Don't be so disgusting
Like wind on the wick
I see the symptoms inside of your binges
I checked that you were dead
I check then I got sucked in

I couldn't help it made me wonder
If you're the weight that pulled us under
All of it was make believe, all of it was make believe
And now I'm pulling back the covers
Thought I could trust you like no other
All of it was make believe, all of it was make believe
Deception

What is the Meaning of Deception?

Ever felt like you’ve been living in a world of illusions and lies? This song dives into the pain and frustration of realizing that everything you believed in was just a facade. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of betrayal and self-discovery, where the protagonist wakes up to the harsh reality that their trust was misplaced. They grapple with feelings of being manipulated and deceived, but ultimately find strength in rejecting superficiality and falsehoods. It’s about breaking free from toxic relationships and societal pressures, embracing authenticity over pretense. The raw emotion and intense imagery highlight the journey from disillusionment to empowerment, making it a powerful anthem for anyone who's ever felt deceived or let down.
