LYRIC FOR SALE

By Brand New Woman

Started off great, you told me you could make me smile.
Not like that other guy who made you cry.
Told me we were meant to be like the stars were aligned.

You were deceiving and I was believing.

First time away, driving in a place unknown, me not reading the map right, you with a sudden shift in tone.

I cried inside you brushed it off. My reaction was the problem, your cruel words were completely normal.

You were deceiving and I was believing.


I say, honey you’re driving too fast, please slow down.
You pull over and tell me if I don’t like it get out of the car.
An uneasy feeling sunk in but I let it pass.

You were deceiving and I was believing



In one unexpected moment i saw it. All that time you’d been sneaking around.
And what hurt more was no sorry, no remorse.
You just repeat I’m a good man, Ive given you the world, you’d have nothing without me.
I picked you up out of the gutter. Imagine where you’d be if you hadn’t met me.

I believed and you deceived.

Why her? Why my friend? You could’ve of told me you were unhappy.
I said, "Let’s talk, I want to understand"
But you called me difficult for holding out my hand.

You crushed my worth just to hold your head high, you had to justify.
Convinced your family I was the liar
Like I didn’t change my religion, or name my kids for them.
Just replaced by her, like I’m a ghost to them, Like I never even existed



30 years I believed, 30 years you deceived
And now its 2 years later you act surprised when the only words i can find is hello. Just another thing you can twist and say see she’s not nice.


No one knows. But I can live with that. Because I’m finally free.


You still deceive... and I no longer believe
