Twilightning - Victim of Deceit lyrics

Couldn't have fallen higher You left a lewd desire Shot down from the sky like a hunted bird Pressure of circumstance You have been taking chances Now it's going to wrack There's a knife stabbed in your back You're the victim of deceit It's all been covered nice and neat To make it all fall down on you like pouring rain You're the wounded and the clown The target for contemtuous frowns Like you're the only one, redeemer of the stain The power of denial Overruled by betrayal Take the blame like it's what you deserve And when the trial had ended Justice was done splendid Jeers and hoots for you They're too dumb to see, it's the right thing that you do You're the victim of deceit It's all been covered nice and neat To make it all fall down on you like pouring rain You're the wounded and the clown The target for contemtuous frowns Like you're the only one, redeemer of the stain Why not to grab the bait when it's at hand? Who the hell is to tell you that you can't? It's easy if you feel no shame and don't believe in hell I can tell... You're the victim of deceit It's all been covered nice and neat To make it all fall down on you like pouring rain You're the wounded and the clown The target for contemtuous frowns Like you're the only one, redeemer of the stain
