Deceiving The Deceivers

The deceivers suspect they are being deceived Accepting that though would mean defeat Desperation lingers behind a calm facade Provoking reaction by flashing the teat You see through them all, you’re so insane Your discernment bringing on the heat But everyone loves us, we have the power To fight forever, no permission to retreat If that were true though, you wouldn’t bother To trigger, provoke, discredit for your seat You wouldn’t need the brave man to cower You wouldn’t smash your head against concrete
