Bondage and Lies

Girls, your deceit runs Atlantic deep. Don’t you know that love’s not guaranteed? There ain’t such a thing as a heart shaped receipt. No return period or exchange policy. The choice you make is the grave you’ll keep.

Until death do you damage you’ll defend, as long as the means justify the ends.

Boy they’ll fool you to believing it’s the path to paradise, soon the boat will be leaving, but it’s disaster in disguise, ’cause where there’s female you’re bound to find bondage and lies.

It’s a conspiracy to pervert the course of a dream, the blueprints of which are locked within your machine. You can’t prize out a heart with a spoon, or on a stick balance the moon.

Until death do you damage you’ll defend, as long as the means justify the ends.

Yes, we are guided by shallow voices and we’re at odds to tell you why. Don’t be complaining or complacent or underestimating what’s inside, ’cause where there’s female you’re bound to find bondage and lies.
