Deceiver/Deceived lyrics

Go!

Deceiver and deceived

Do you believe everything you hear

Or is it only what you see?

Is everything really black and white

Or is it all a shade of grey?

Tell me

Is your head in the clouds

Or buried underground?

Lie, deny, evade

And bend the truth

Until it starts to break (Distort reality)

So fake, persuade, betray

Then tell yourself that everyone's to blame

Deceiver and deceived

Deceiver and deceived

(Deceiver and deceived)

Have you been sold the river full of gold?

The castle on the hill of sand?

Do you now see the forest for the trees

Or do you keep falling for the sleight of hand?

Tell me

Is your head in the clouds

Or buried underground?

Lie, deny, evade

And bend the truth

Until it starts to break (Distort reality)

So fake, persuade, betray

Then tell yourself that everyone’s to blame

Deceiver and deceived

Truth is not relative

Truth is absolute

To reject truth is a choice

And every choice has a consequence

Go!

Is your head in the clouds

Or buried underground?

Lie, deny, evade

Fake, persuade, betray

Lie, deny, evade

And bend the truth

Until it starts to break (Distort reality)

So fake, persuade, betray

Then tell yourself that everyone's to blame (Distort reality)
