PERFIDIOUS Lyrics

Don't let the photos fool you, child

You don't know how warm

That water is

For all you know it is frigid

Body numb and unknowing

Like you once were

Naive and trusting

Even as heartstrings were pulled so far

They may never snap back

Don't let the photos fool you

Things aren't always what they seem

You faked it

Long enough yourself

For all you know the rose-tinted

Glasses have fallen into the hands

Of another and no

It is not your role

To help them take them off

You see, everyone is a villain

In someone else's story

Don't let yourself

Become the villain in your own

In the name of a love that

Seldom held you when you were cold

All because you think

They're giving their heat

To the next pretty face
