StinkyNettles - Snakes Lyrics

I've known you for a long long time
Thought our bond was strong a precious find
But now I see with crystal clarity
There's nothing in you that's redeeming to me

Oh I was blind couldn't see the signs
Now I'm laughing at my own naive mind
It's like waking up from a strange bad dream
Realizing things aren't what they seem

What was I thinking oh what a waste of time?
To see you in a light that'd never shine
Now the truth is out no need to pretend
Turns out you're just a joke with a bitter end

I should've seen through your disguise
Your empty gestures your fake goodbyes
I'm letting go I'm breaking free
From the masquerade you played with me

Your silver tongue spun webs of lies
But I've cut through them seen the disguise
The illusion shattered I can finally breathe
No longer caught in the tales you weave

Oh I was fooled played like a game
Now I laugh and shake my head in shame
How did I miss what was so plain to see?
You're not the friend you pretended to be

Watch out for lions disguised as snakes
Deceptive lies are all it takes
Burning bridges often clears the way
To see the truth in the light of day

Your jokes were never really that funny
Your smile was just a way to fish for money
Your kindness was a mask oh so thin
A shell hiding the rot within

What was I thinking oh what a waste of time?
To see you in a light that'd never shine
Now the truth is out no need to pretend
Turns out you're just a joke with a bitter end

Turns out you're just a joke with a bitter end
You're just a joke with a bitter end
