The Deceiver
The Deceiver


I deceive you in the promises I make to you
I deceive you in bonds that you bind me with
I deceive you with my smile
I deceive your sad smile with my laughter
I deceive your tears in your eyes with the drops of water in my eyes
I deceive your sorrows with look of sadness on my face
I deceive your pain in your heart with my heart of stone
I deceive the glare of your intense eyes by looking away from you
I deceive your ears by making a show of paying attention to you
I deceive you by moving away from you when your eyes are closed
I deceive your love by writing songs on you
I deceive your sadne
ss by calling you beautiful
I deceive your sorrows by calling you charmingly lovely
I deceive your tears by calling them the water of life
I deceive your smiles by calling them charming
I deceive the shine of your teeth by calling them the sparkle of the pearls
I deceive your words, with my lies of I love you
I deceive your dreams by calling them your illusions
I deceive you with a straight heart
I deceive you with my eyes closed
I deceive all the things that you hold dear to you
I am the deceiver
I am the Deceiver without a second thought to you
I am the deceiver, I am the deceiver.
