Snake in the Grass

Wait for me by the sea
 I'll tell you everything you needed to believe
 Through encoded messages and texts
 Communication at its best, that's me
 Can't you see me smiling
 Through the teeth made out of wood?
 This feint's not working out so good, you see
 I'm a bit of everything, a farce from the start
 You were the ruse, you were the cover, of a deception like no other
 You'll know the truth when you discover
 I'm more than an inconvenient lover
 I'll try to keep the intelligence brief
 This plot is not as thick as it seems to me
 ♪
 I'll stand here outside in the cold
 Waiting for an ally to relieve my post
 A turncoat switched at your behest
 Treason's not so bad in jest, I'm told
 My allegiance has been sold
 An infiltrator in your care, a snake in the grass, I know you're scared
 But I won't succumb to fear like a shade in the dark
 You were the ruse, you were the cover, of a deception like no other
 You'll know the truth when you discover
 I'm more than an inconvenient lover
 I'll try to keep the intelligence brief
 This plot is not as thick as it seems to me
 ♪
 Can you release me from this service
 'Cause no one here deserves this
 The winds of change will clear the way
 And leave me with a world to pave
 You would bless me if you cursed this
 'Cause it's too late to reverse this
 We've come too far to clear the stain
 I'll build my house out of the waste
 
 You were the ruse, you were the cover, of a deception like no other
 You'll know the truth when you discover
 I'm more than an inconvenient lover
 I'll try to keep the intelligence brief
