Dashboard Confessional The Best Deception Lyrics

The Best Deception Lyrics

I heard about your trip
I heard about your souveniers
I heard about the
cool breeze, in the cool nights, and the cool guys
That you spent them
with
I guess I should have heard of them from you
I guess I should have
heard of them from you

Well don't you see, don't you see that the
charade is over?
And all the "Best Deceptions" and the
"Clever Cover Story" awards
Go to you
So kiss me hard 'cause
this will be the last time that I'll let you
You will be back some
day
And this awkward kiss that tells of other people's lips
Will be of
service
To giving you away

I heard about your regrets
I heard that
you were feeling sorry
I heard from someone that you wish you could set
things right between us
Well, I guess I should have heard of that from
you
I guess I should have heard of that from you

Well don't you see,
don't you see that the charade is over?
And all the "Best
Deceptions" and the "Clever Cover Story" awards
Go to
you
So kiss me hard 'cause this will be the last time that I let you
You
will be back someday
And this awkward kiss that screams of other people's
lips
Will be of service to giving you away
To giving you away

I'm
waiting for blood to flow to my fingers
I'll be all right when my hands get
warm
Ignoring the phone, I'd rather say nothing
I'd rather you'd never
heard my voice

You're calling too late, too late to be gracious
And
you do not warrant long good-byes
You're calling too late
You're calling
too late
You're calling too late
