I couldn't make a change

I might have known you had found another love

I sat at home all night

Bask in the lonely pale of my bedstand light

But through a tear in a curtain in a cheap motel

I saw with jealous eyes

You made the call to lie

Deceptively yours

I saw a black cloud

I didn't hear a sound only the shell on the ground

Was a scream somewhere

And in the thick night air I put the pedal down

As the sirens wailed

And I sat alone and prayed not knowing what was to come

But through a tear in a curtain in a cheap motel

I saw with jealous eyes

You made the call to lie

Deceptively yours

I tried not to believe the scene that I could see

It felt like days passes by

Before I truend away I felt a dizzy sway

And the gun in my hand stood before a judge

He cleared his throat to say I won't give you no bail

Shackled with chains or love

I knew that I had bought my own coffin nails

I hear your sweet voice calling out my name

As I stare from a six foot cell

And from beyond I heard the words

Deceptively yours
