Deceiver and Deceived

get me high, take me down

make me forget how to frown

take away the worries and regrets

tell me that everyone eventually forgets

make me better, fix me up

pick up the pieces of this shattered cup

once so serene, and unsuspecting

thrown down to the ground, disconnecting

make me whole, take this pain

make me feel that blissful feign

momentary comfort, at a cost

making me forget what I've lost

give me comfort, give me empty promises

that you can sustain this hollow premise

of a bright future, of a forgotten past

promise me that it will last

but the truth is that these things will pass

giving me nothing but a broken glass

a shattered cup, a future scattered

whilst taking away all that mattered
