Deceitful Hearts

[Verse] Underneath the false smiles and the handshake deals, There's a cold, dark truth that the devil reveals. They’ll take your every dime, your blood and your sweat, But leave you in the gutter, like a memory they forget. [Verse 2] You built your life on trust and a vision so clear, But they whispered sweet lies, and fed on your fear. Took your land, took your name, left you in the dirt, For their gain is your pain, a lesson that will hurt. [Chorus] Deceitful hearts, they show no sign, They’ll drag you through the mud, steal your shine. When the lights go down, it’s just you out there alone, Deceitful hearts won't guide you back home. [Verse 3] You watched your dreams shatter like glass on the floor, With each broken promise, they demanded more. There's no place in their world for a man who’s just kind, For they see your goodwill as a bounty to find. [Verse 4] Every promise they made turned bitter in time, You learned the hard way through struggle and crime. But out of the ashes, a lesson is born, Trust is a treasure they’ve forever torn. [Chorus] Deceitful hearts, they show no sign, They’ll drag you through the mud, steal your shine. When the lights go down, it’s just you out there alone, Deceitful hearts won't guide you back home.
