A.T.N.B.
Unveiling Deception: A.T.N.B. by Cat Geography
Lyrics
You put yourself on a pedestal
You have elevated yourself above others.
To look down on everyone you know
You use this elevated position to look down upon everyone you know.
And claim to love
You claim to love.
Please know that your shallow thoughts
Be aware that your superficial thoughts...
About an entire gender
...about an entire gender.
Cannot be justified by saying you're old fashioned
These thoughts can't be justified by claiming to be old-fashioned.
You are no gentleman
You are not a gentleman.
Throwing dirt at the backs of all your friends
You're criticizing and undermining your friends.
Now you've exposed yourself to them
Now, your true self is revealed to them.
It must be such an inconvenience
Your behavior must be inconvenient for you.
That the lies you tell
The lies you spread...
Get back to who you lied about
...eventually reach the people you lied about.
You can deny it all you want
Despite denial, you know the truth.
You know exactly what you are
You are fully aware of your true nature.
And everybody knows the real you now
Everyone now knows the real you.
They’re enlightened and unimpressed
Others are enlightened and unimpressed.
Your tongue has crafted quite the web
Your words have spun a deceptive web...
To capture nothing but yourself
...that only captures your own image.
Farewell
Farewell.
(To someone I once thought was a decent person)
Addressed to someone once thought decent.
My eyes were clouded by trust
Trust clouded the speaker's eyes.
That you held in your palm
You held trust in your hands.
The same one
The same hands deceive the girls you lead on.
That grips the hands of all the girls you lead on
You condemn these girls while leading them on.
Then tell me they’re the bad ones
Then falsely label them as the bad ones.
We were close for so damn long
Despite a close friendship for a long time...
But you burned us alive for a demon
...you betrayed the speaker for a demon.
You condemned until you craved her warmth
You condemned until you desired warmth from that demon.
With perverted intent
With perverted intent, you sought that warmth.
I’m glad I lost you as a friend
The speaker is relieved to lose you as a friend.
You claim to be so good at talking
You claim to excel at communication.
You brag your lies can shape their decisions
You boast that your lies influence others' decisions.
You know the tempo
You understand the tempo and timing of your deceit.
The right timing
What makes you proud of insincerity?
What made you proud of being insincere
You are out of harmony with sincerity.
You're out of key
Your actions are discordant.
You're out of line
You have crossed boundaries.
Just like a metronome that's ticking out of time
Like a metronome out of time, you are offbeat.
A mere regret of the time I spent
A reflection on the regrettable time spent supporting you.
Holding you up so you could stab me in the back
You betrayed the speaker after being supported.
