EYES OF DECEPTION

Deception was found in your beauty eyes 
The so called truth you told we're all lies 
And I bought it hook line and sinker 
Loving you was not only a mistake 
It was a disaster 

I trusted you with my heart 
You pledged your love to me 
You took an oath before God
Till death do us part 

I was there for you through thick and thin 
When the storms were raging 
I carried you on my back 
Knowing you could not swim 

To you I was like a maid
Making sure 
That all your bills were paid 
Being there for you in sickness 
Was the least I could do 
And whatever came your way 
I saw you through 

But your love was always a sham 
Even though you ate daily from my hand
Your desire was always to deceive my trust 
And as beautiful as you are
Your heart will forever be corrupted.
