The Best Deceptions
I heard about the trip.
i heard about your souveneirs.
i heard about the cool breeze in the cool nights
and the cool guys
that you spent them with.
i guess i should have heard of them from you
i guess i should have heard of them from you
Don't you see, don't you see,
that the charade is over?
and all the best deceptions
and the clever cover story awards
go to you.
so kiss me hard 'cuz this'll be the last time that i let you.
You will be back someday
and this awkward kiss
that tells of other people's lips
will be of service, to giving you away.
I heard about your regrets.
I heard that you were feeling sorry.
I heard from someone that you wished you could
set things right between us.
I guess I should have heard of that from you
I guess I should have heard of that from you
So don't you see, don't you see,
that the charade is over?
and all the best deceptions
and the clever cover story awards
go to you.
so kiss me hard 'cuz this'll be the last time that i let you.
You will be back someday,
and this awkward kiss that screams of other people's lips
will be of service
in giving you away.
to giving you away.
I'm waiting for blood
to flow to my fingers
i'll be all right when my hands get warm.
ignoring the phone,
i'd rather say nothing,
i'd rather you never heard my voice.
you're calling too late,
too late to be gracious.
and you do not warrant long good-byes.
you're calling too late,
you're calling too late.
i heard about your souveneirs.
i heard about the cool breeze in the cool nights
and the cool guys
that you spent them with.
i guess i should have heard of them from you
i guess i should have heard of them from you
Don't you see, don't you see,
that the charade is over?
and all the best deceptions
and the clever cover story awards
go to you.
so kiss me hard 'cuz this'll be the last time that i let you.
You will be back someday
and this awkward kiss
that tells of other people's lips
will be of service, to giving you away.
I heard about your regrets.
I heard that you were feeling sorry.
I heard from someone that you wished you could
set things right between us.
I guess I should have heard of that from you
I guess I should have heard of that from you
So don't you see, don't you see,
that the charade is over?
and all the best deceptions
and the clever cover story awards
go to you.
so kiss me hard 'cuz this'll be the last time that i let you.
You will be back someday,
and this awkward kiss that screams of other people's lips

in giving you away.
to giving you away.
I'm waiting for blood
to flow to my fingers
i'll be all right when my hands get warm.
ignoring the phone,
i'd rather say nothing,
i'd rather you never heard my voice.
you're calling too late,
too late to be gracious.
and you do not warrant long good-byes.
you're calling too late,
you're calling too late.
