lyrics

Reaching for something that I never had
Sensing a killing, you held out your hand
I grasped it tightly the way that you'd planned
This is how it all began
Fishing for humans to batter and gut
Lonely and gullible, ripe for the cut
Manipulating and gaining their trust
Hook line and sinker, you caught yourself a chump

Sold me your story and now you sell mine
Hooked on your lies, you were biding your time
You set me up for maximum exposure
Drafting your ransom to sardonic laughter

I believed
You deceived
Let me see
What you have on me

Crippled by stage fright or too camera shy
Never a signal, you can't perform live
Always a reason to stay out of sight
I wish I had hid from you
I added colour to your black and white
Plot twists and turns like a knife in my side
Sick of the drama and desensitised
I grew determined to rid myself of you

Sold me your story and now you sell mine
Hooked on your lies, you were biding your time
You set me up for maximum exposure
Drafting your ransom to sardonic laughter

Joining the dots it just doesn't add up
Too many gaps now I'm calling your bluff
Missed ultimatums conclusive enough
Checkmate's the end of the game

Beneath the mountain or up in the clouds
Wherever you say you are, you're never found
Back in the woodwork or under that rock
Get the hell back whence you came

I believed
You deceived
Let me see
What you have on me

Told them your story, well now I tell mine
Fell for your lines once but then I got wise
You stick your head up and I will expose you
I'll make you suffer from now to hereafter
