Lessons In Deception

I've been patiently waiting
For the perfect time to strike
It's not the hatred that I hold on you
But I sure as hell began to like
I'm mistreating, misleading you
I'm searching for
That perfect place
When you and I go face to face
Believe me when I tell you this
It started with a simple kiss
So through it all
The things we've seen
The rise and fall the between
So for now I am a ghost
So watch you back
If you could be lonely
I would be so happy
Because I can see everything you believe
Crashing like waves at sea
I could be wrong here
We could've been so much more
But now I see everything
We believed crashing like waves at sea
Now I'm secretly creeping
Through every little lie
Dissecting all the things you said
Trying to get in your head
I'm believing
Your deceiving me
I opened up the door for you
And finally let you in
You pulled the pin cause I'm a hand grenade
The bricks you laid the walls I made
Around my heart a barricade
Of sticks and stone
The bones they break
I stitch these wounds to mend the hate
I hesitate
If you could be lonely
I would be so happy
Because I can see everything you believe
Crashing like waves at sea
I could be wrong here
We could've been so much more
But now I see everything
We believed crashing like waves at sea
(Waves at sea)
This is all the time we make
For people that we chose to hate
We come to find ourselves within
For people that we chose to mend
And what I've lost
I paid the cost
And crucified upon the cross
From through the night and to the day
The morning light will guide the way (x4)
If you could be lonely
I would be so happy
Because I can see everything you believe
Crashing like waves at sea
I could be wrong here
We could've been so much more
But now I see everything
We believed crashing like waves at sea (x2)
(Waves at sea)
