Deception

(album: Side A - 2016)

You didn't ever care for me
You didn't ever care for me, oh
[x3]

You unfolded your arms and you unclenched your fists
And I dropped all my bags and then on that star I wished
What I would do, what I would do to be loved by, by you
And I opened the door and I watched as you looked at me
With honest confusion and certainly unrelieved
What I would do, what I would do to be loved by, by you

[Chorus:]
You didn't ever oh, you didn't ever care for me oh
You didn't ever oh, you didn't ever care for me oh
You didn't ever care
So I'm sitting and wondering why
You didn't ever care for me, you didn't ever care for me, oh
You didn't ever care for me, you didn't ever care for me, oh
You didn't ever care for me, you didn't ever care for me, yeah

I can't take back the bite, this fruit was not meant for me
Deception and vice, at the finest I'd ever seen
But what I would do, what I would do to be loved by, by you
And the funny thing is that I settled for the untruth
Just because I'm a slave to the fantasy of being in love
And what I would do to be loved by, by you

Thinking it through, now I see everything
How did I not know it, life with you's but a dream
But what I would do, what I would do to be loved by, by you

[Chorus]

And now I'm sitting here wondering why
