Blanket Barricade — Friendly Games of Deceit lyrics

Lyrics

Run for cover
Ambush sprung with set you straights
Always one against the other
Let the antics begin, break down this love parade
It’s strange how we’ve got it made
The useless hours we spend, the wars we wage
One step away from sealing your final defeat
Can’t hesitate from playing friendly games of deceit
But one can see that this love is all make-believe, we’ll see
Creature, Creature
Yes, you colour the world with your sunset stride
But my shell shocked, baby
Under closer inspection, it’s all a disguise
With mutual understanding, we each raise our fists
The practical implication of making love exist
If I egg you on, will you permit me to feign?
X me out, X you in, fast, track the blame
It’s strange how we’ve got it made
We ring the bells of war to waste the hours away
One step away from sealing your final defeat
Can’t hesitate from playing friendly games of deceit
But one can see that this love is all make-believe, we’ll see
Focus on the draw
Balloon raids in the hall
Focus on the facts
Run for cover or just relax
Recite your inflictions, I’ll study my act
What matters most is the initial attack
When the mushroom clouds clear, it takes courage to turn back
Stand face to face, can you face the facts?
One step away from sealing our final defeat
Can’t hesitate from playing friendly games of deceit
But soon we’ll see that this love is all make-believe, you’ll see
One step away from sealing our final defeat
Can’t hesitate from playing friendly games of deceit
But soon we’ll see that this love is all make-believe, we’ll see
That it’s all make-believe, we’ll see
Run for cover
