Deceiver Lyrics by Get Scared

The Dead Days

2019

[Verse 1: Nicholas Matthews]
It's all the same to me, so you can go
'Cause you're on your own
(Thought you had me fucking fooled, not even close)

[Pre-Chorus: Nicholas Matthews]
Caught off guard like a deer in headlights
Tried to hide the bottle behind your bedside light
There hasn't been a colder night in my entire life

[Chorus]
You're hard to avoid and somehow unaware
That I can't stand the sound of your voice or dry the tears of fifteen years
Took all the abuse, walked away black and blue
And betrayed me in the worst way you knew, so now I'm over you
So now I'm over you (Now, I'm over)

[Verse 2: Nicholas Matthews]
Before our desperate times
When we first laid eyes on fireflies and Indiana nights
I recall the year was '99

[Interlude: All]
(Yeah, get the fuck out of here!)
(You motherfucker!)
(Yeah!)
(You motherfucker!)
(Yeah!)

[Pre-Chorus: Nicholas Matthews]
Caught off guard like a deer in headlights
Tried to hide the bottle behind your bedside light
There hasn't been a colder night in my entire life

[Chorus: Nicholas Matthews]
You're hard to avoid and somehow unaware
That I can't stand the sound of your voice or dry the tears of fifteen years
Took all the abuse, walked away black and blue
And betrayed me in the worst way you knew, so now I'm over you

[Bridge: Nicholas Matthews and Bradley Iverson]
More afraid than ashamed
I can't express enough the lengths I am willing to go
Filled my veins with disdain to save your withered bones
Hope you know, beautiful, I'm better on my own

[Chorus: Nicholas Matthews]
You're hard to avoid and somehow unaware
That I can't stand the sound of your voice or dry the tears of fifteen years
Took all the abuse, walked away black and blue
And betrayed me in the worst way you knew, so now I'm over you

[Outro: Nicholas Matthews]
Caught off guard like a deer in headlights
Tried to hide the bottle behind your bedside light
There hasn't been a colder night in my entire life
There was not much of you left that I cared to lose
When you betrayed me in the worst way you knew, so now I'm over you
So now I'm over you
