Beating on my heart to the rhythm of a drum
She's used to city lights, drinks, and having fun
Yearning for happiness and praying that it will come
She's searching, looking in places that are just wrong
Off her beauty and smile, I became drunk
All the while I knew it wouldn't last long
Laid in the shade, I was woken by the sun
Guess I was foolish to think that she's the one
Crying in the dark, but she smiles in the light
And off that liquor, yea she's gone for the night
Heartbreaks and scars, man I guess I lost the fight
Perception/ Deception has taken flight
