Last August - King of Deception Lyrics



Last August - King of Deception Lyrics




Your shoes are leaving stains on my floor
No invitation and you barge through the door
Acting like we're still friends
You play me like a rabbit in your magic show
Tip your black hat over and you pull out a rose
Well I won't be taken in

You're the king of deception and I wanted to believe you loved me
Master of misdirection with an ace of hearts up your sleeve
I was a fool, I was a fool, I was a fool
To fall for you, to fall for you, to fall for you
Don't come around here no more
Take your bag of tricks with you out the door

Your crafty eyes and your twisted smile
Had a hold on me for a little while
But charm is fleeting, and it fled
The whole world loves you, so unaware
Poor blind souls get caught in your snare
You bleed hearts dry and leave them for dead

You're the king of deception and I wanted to believe you loved me
Master of misdirection with an ace of hearts up your sleeve
I was a fool, I was a fool, I was a fool
To fall for you, to fall for you, to fall for you

And now we're through, through, through
I finally saw true, true, true
I opened my eyes and saw the light
You cannot hide, hide, hide
Your little white lies
Your little white lies

You're the king of deception and I wanted to believe you loved me
Master of misdirection with an ace of hearts up your sleeve
I was a fool, I was a fool, I was a fool
To fall for you, to fall for you, to fall for you
This is the end of the show
Take your bag of tricks with you when you go
