about

A song about lies and a trust betrayed.

lyrics

VERSE 1
Funny how you always show up
Just when the moment is right – like tonight
Charming like an eager salesman
You're ready all of the time – with your lines
Subtle as a soothing whisper
You creep in slow for the kill – feel the chill
Always probing for the weak spot
To worm your way in again – pathogen

CHORUS
Liar – that's what you are, you are just a
Liar – you won't get far, 'cos I know your game
Why are – you still a-round
When you've lost your hunting ground
You have no shame
REPEAT

VERSE 2
Talking – all this endless talking
You fill up all of the space – plead your case
Answers ready for all questions
You show at any expense - confidence
Laughing with your dead-eye smile
Reveals your bloody canines – danger line
This time you won't have your blood meal
I'm wise to all of your tricks and politics

CHORUS

BRIDGE
Close your eyes – breathe out slow
Feels so nice – to let your worries go
And you can float away
And find yourself believing what they ...
Say to you – close your mind
Hurts your head – to have to think each time
They lie to get their way
But wake up now – or live in a world of pain

CHORUS

Blackjack Rose Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Blackjack Rose is an eclectic mix of musicians and musical styles. Our songs touch upon many genres (prog, pop, indie, alternative, R&B, jazz, rock, gospel etc.), but the band isn't defined by any one label. Each song stands on its own; there is no attempt to mold a song to fit a “sound”. We want our music to be immediately enjoyable and accessible to new listeners, and yet not sound too familiar. ... more
