Deceive Lyrics by Light The Fire

Compassion in Unlikely Places

0

I watched the flame that burned inside you
Slowly dim and fade away
I saw the passion they looked up to
Start to fade and dissipate

I've felt this a longtime
I saw you look down on everyone
You speak about hard times
You've never been through a single one
You made them trust you
They thought that you'd understand
What they have been through
They put their hearts in your hands

Tell me when did you lose yourself?

I can't believe
That you could deceive
All the trust of the lost ones
You made them believe
That they wouldn't sink
With their heads underwater
I'll reach out to retrieve
I can't believe you would deceive
All of the weak and the naive

I watched it in real-time
I witnessed you slowly giving up
I'll never take your side
You were never one of us

Tell me when did you lose yourself?
You made me believe like everyone else
Tell me when did you lose yourself?

I can't believe
That you could deceive
All the trust of the lost ones, you made them believe
That they wouldn't sink
With their heads underwater
I'll reach out to retrieve
I can't believe you would deceive
All of the weak and the naive

How could you betray
The trust of the lost ones
You were just afraid to show them yourself

What can you say?
To fix the way
You've led the lost and weak astray
This ends today
Fall back into place
This role is mine to take

I can't believe
That you could deceive
All the trust of the lost ones, you made them believe
That they wouldn't sink
With their heads underwater
I'll reach out to retrieve
I can't believe you would deceive
All of the weak and the naive
