Deceived by an Angel Lyrics

Trust you to stand before me like an angel
All dressed in sweet conceit, though I can't see it
I'm running around in circles, but still I can't understand
But with my third eye open, I can see
That you treat me like a foolBut one more lie that I can't take
It's my tree that you shake
So shake my soul to the ground and shake me downTrust you to want to want me, but do you need me?
I pull petals from a flower, do you love me?
I've seen you around my garden and you make the flowers bloom
But when spring comes early, summers pass
And autumn comes to soonBut one more lie that I can't take
It's my tree that you shake
So shake my soul to the ground and shake me down'Cause I was deceived by an angel
I was deceived by an angel
I was deceived by an angel, by an angel, ohOh baby, can't you understand
That you're looking at a broken man
If I could pick up the pieces of my broken heart
I would do it all againBut one more lie that I can't take

It's my tree that you shake
So shake my soul to the ground and shake me down'Cause I was deceived by an angel
I was deceived by an angel
I was deceived by an angel, by an angel, ohI was deceived by an angel
I was deceived by an angel
I was deceived by an angel, by an angel, oh
