Snake in the Grass - Despised Icon

Snake in the grass

Wanted a song, now you got one

All these years by your side

Now we’re all done

So self-absorbed

So you lie and you lie again

Manipulate all your friends

Until you’re done with them

Walk away

Out of my life

You’re fucking dead to me

Always had it your way, never compromised

Treating someone as a means to an end

Your intentions were never pure, no more lies

Relying on others, you try to blend in

Dodged a bullet

Deep down, I felt you were crooked

Kept ignoring my instinct (I knew it)

You finally let your true colours shine on my birthday

Oh, what a wonderful gift

Bitch, you’re dead to me

Would you swear on your life?

On your life

Look me dead in the eye

Dead in the eye

Would you swear on your life?

I guess we’ll never know the truth

Made me question my sanity

Went to the other side and it changed me

Came back a different man

Found a new prey

Covered your trail

Your words are venomous

Always tipping the scales

The element of surprise

Selective honesty

Cut through the smoke and denial

Love lost, throw away the key

Made me question my sanity

Went to the other side and it changed me

Came back a different man

I guess we’ll never know the truth

Snake in the grass

Slithering around 'til you strike again

Switching your circle of friends

Each time you reach the edge

You had your chance to end things right

You had your chance to end things right

Learned a valuable lesson

I won’t even put up a fight, no

Always had it your way, never compromised

Treating someone as a means to an end

Your intentions were never pure, no more lies

This is my final plea

You’re dead to me

Look me dead in the eye

Dead in the eye

Would you swear on your life?

On your life

Look me dead in the eye

Dead in the eye

Would you swear on your life?

I beg you, bless me with the truth

11:11, I beg you, bless me with the truth

11:11, nothing but wishful thinking

11:11, every piece of the puzzle

Is finally in its right place

A fall from grace
