Perfidious
Betrayed Echoes: Unraveling the Deceit in 'Perfidious' Lyrics
Lyrics
Perfidious words
Expressing deceitful or untrustworthy words
You drunkenly spoke
Words spoken under the influence of alcohol
A hornets nest that you willingly poked
Purposely provoking a troublesome situation
You bled us dry, your sight and aim
Depleting resources and causing harm with intention
Our blood runs red, but we're not the same
Despite sharing blood, there's a fundamental difference
Perfidious slugs
Deceptive and harmful actions
Shot off by you
Continued actions causing harm or betrayal
Perfidious slugs
-Shot off by you
-Gaslit commitments, blowing smoke
False promises and deceptive commitments
You tore this down, we watched you go
Destroying something while being observed
Your streak ends here, your time's run out
End of a negative streak, time running out
You treacherous fuck
Strong expression of betrayal and anger
All bark, no bite
Criticizing someone for being all talk and no action
All bark, no bite
-Your house of cards begins to fall
Metaphor for a fragile or unstable situation collapsing
Your time is short as you try and stall
Limited time to delay the inevitable
Your playing with flames that you can't subdue
Engaging in risky behavior that can't be controlled
Biding time that you can't afford
Wasting time that is running out
We called you out, but you ignored
Confronting someone who ignored previous warnings
You bled us dry, your sight and aim
Reiteration of causing harm intentionally
Our blood runs red
Despite shared blood, emphasizing differences
We are not the same
-We are not the same
Emphasizing the distinction between individuals
Perfidious slugs
Repetition of harmful actions
Shot off by you
-Perfidious slugs
-Shot off by you
Continued expression of harm caused by the individual
