MEMPHIS MAY FIRE

- The Deceived Lyrics

Maybe one day you'll see what you did to me,
But until then, I need you to know you make me sick!

I know that you think that you're changing,
I know that you think you're perfect.
But your yesterday is a joke
And everyone's heard it all before!

You'll never give me what I know I deserve,
The same as all of the rest but with half the nerve!

I should have known,
(I should have known!)
I should have seen
How much was wrong.
You're a mistake.
You're a mistake, a disease on my soul!

I can't believe I thought I had you figured out.
I should have known,
I should have seen how much was wrong.
I should have known,
I should have seen that you were broken.
You were broken from the start.

I gave you all of of me.
Put you first in line, such a waste of time.
I was always yours, you were never mine.
How could you leave me standing outside?

You're such a sick, sad waste of a human being!
I hope you're happy, go paint that smile
Right back on your face, you're so fake.
I'm so tired of all the generic excuses,
So this, this is where I draw the line.
With every "I love you" you left me more empty.
And now it is so obvious...

You were broken,
You were broken from the start.
I should have known,
I should have seen how much was wrong!

I gave you all of of me.
Put you first in line, such a waste of time.
I was always yours, you were never mine.
How could you leave me standing outside?

When you hear these words
And wonder if they're about you,
Don't call and complain.
You know there's truth
In every word that I say!

You're such a sick, sad waste of a human being.
You're such a sick, sad waste of a human being!

I gave you all of of me.
Put you first in line, such a waste of time.
I was always yours, you were never mine.
How could you leave me standing outside?

I gave you all of me,
Such a waste of time.
This is where I draw the line,
This is where I draw the line!

What is the meaning behind The Deceived lyrics?


When we dive into the story the lyrics are telling, the Memphis May Fire's song "The Deceived" is about the suffering that comes from betrayal and the eventual coming to terms with being wronged in a relationship. The words depict the mourning process of giving everything to a partner who was never really in it for the long haul, which, in turn, leads to feeling like one was an object of necessity and not a vessel of affection. The deceived lyrics however mainly highlight the pain of love lost, the blazing and raging fires of anger, the stormy weather of despair and the calmness of the healing process through the reflection. The song simultaneously illustrates the significance of treachery and disappointment, self-awakening and empowerment and, consequently, broken relationships. The lyrics are full of emotional distress and a very critical look at the relationship which might not be suitable for very young children (those under 13) to listen to. The language used is effective in portraying strong emotions of disappointment and frustration thus bringing up adult themes that are not appropriate for the younger audience without supervision.
