Delilah Lyrics by Shields

Life in Exile

2018

[Intro: Joe Edwards]
You've spread your lies for far too long
Filthy snake, throwing shade, when did you become so fake?
I should rip off your resting bitch face
And wear it like a mask

[Verse 1: Joe Edwards]
I should have known
When your cold breath rested on mine
That your heart was black
Like the hair running down your back

[Pre-Chorus: Joe Edwards]
It's, it's beyond me how you can even sleep
Knowing that you're the reason that I lie awake

[Chorus: Sam Kubrick & Joe Edwards]
Darling, I would never harm you (Harm you)
But the thought has crossed my mind
It felt so real, it felt so real
I thought it was love, spit me out
I've never been so wrong about someone

[Verse 2: Joe Edwards & Sam Kubrick]
I will not be, no, I will not be played like this again
You made my imperfections look perfect by comparison
A modern day Delilah in the flesh
Self-serving filth, you know what you are
And I'm not the only one who thinks you are scum
You're fucking filth, you know what you are
And I'm not the only one who thinks you are scum
Your heart is black
Like the hair running down your back

[Chorus: Sam Kubrick & Joe Edwards]
Darling, I would never harm you (Harm you)
But the thought has crossed my mind
It felt so real, it felt so real
I thought it was love, spit me out
I've never been so wrong about someone

[Outro: Joe Edwards & Sam Kubrick]
You've spread your lies for far too long
Filthy snake, throwing shade, when did you become so fake?
I should rip off your resting bitch face
And wear it like a mask
Your heart is black
Like the hair running down your back
Delilah
