Betrayed by the one who says she loves you
By the one who says she needs you
Above all other men
Betrayed by her fragile, vicious beauty
Her father did his duty and I lie down betrayed
Verse
Justice taught her confidence her mother was like steel
Her cousins, they're all convicts
A Asus
But a motorcyclist no matter how good
Is slave to the oncoming truck
And the poison of her father was her most pitiless luck
Betrayed by the one who says she loves you
By the one who says she needs you
Above all other men
Betrayed by her fragile, vicious beauty
Her father did his duty and I lie down betrayed
Verse
Three of us lie in this bed, night of infamy
One of us lies on our back, her father's in her head
And quick she turns and slaps my face
And with her eyes open wide she screams
"I hate you, I hate you, I hate you!"
But she's looking right past me
Betrayed by the one who says she loves you
By the one who says she needs you
Above all other men
Betrayed by her fragile, vicious beauty
Her father did his duty and I lie down betrayed
And I lie down betrayed
I lie down betrayed
