Blinded by the Sun
Unveiling Deceit: Blinded by Love's Illusions
Lyrics
You told me it's the truth but I'm still afraid
You assured me of the truth, but I remain fearful.
I'm not the one who would jump the gun
I am not impulsive or hasty.
If I had proof I'd take off my shades
If there was evidence, I'd discard my defenses.
And be blinded by the sun
To confront reality even if it's harsh.
One lie, two lies, I shoulda said shoo fly.
Dismiss one lie, two lies, I should have ignored deceit.
Shame on me, I usually see through lies.
Regret for not seeing through lies, acknowledging a mistake.
Said you loved me, yeah right.
Expressing disbelief in professed love.
I thought we were air tight.
Believed in a solid relationship, now betrayed.
You were playing foul, it was far from a fair fight.
Accusation of foul play, an uneven competition.
I hung onto your every word, sweetest shit I ever heard.
Held onto every sweet word spoken, genuine affection.
I even made you pinky swear, just so I was reassured.
Even made a solemn promise for reassurance.
The rumors started gettin' back, that so and so was hittin' that.
Rumors circulate about infidelity.
Silly me for being such an addict for that kitty cat.
Admits to addiction to a forbidden pleasure.
You told me it's the truth but I'm still afraid
Reiteration of the fear despite reassurances.
I'm not the one who would jump the gun
Emphasizing hesitancy and caution.
If I had proof I'd take off my shades
Expressing willingness to accept the truth.
And be blinded by the sun
Confronting reality, facing the harsh truth.
You said you were in love but the games you played
Claiming love but engaging in hurtful games.
I hope that you're having fun
Doubting the sincerity and questioning the fun derived from deceit.
You see I need you to take off my shades,
Requesting exposure to the truth, even if painful.
And be blinded by the sun.
To face the consequences of reality.
Three lies, four lies, you shoulda been a tour guide.
Counting lies, sarcastically suggesting a career as a tour guide.
The way you lead me on, knowing I was one of four guys
Leading on multiple individuals knowingly.
Said you loved me, okay. Where were you the other day?
Acknowledging a hollow declaration of love.
Your car was parked at 38th, but you were at your mothers place?
Questioning the sincerity due to conflicting actions.
Your mother lives on Broadway. I followed you all day.
Investigating the truth through surveillance.
I called but you ignored it when you kissed him in the hallway.
Discovering infidelity, a painful revelation.
Call me crazy, call me odd, call me what you want to.
Accepting potential criticism for unconventional actions.
But Karma is a bitch, I pray to God she always haunts you.
Believing in the concept of karma and its consequences.
You told me it's the truth but I'm still afraid
Repeating the theme of fear despite attempted reassurances.
I'm not the one who would jump the gun
Highlighting a cautious and non-impulsive nature.
If I had proof I'd take off my shades
Expressing readiness to accept evidence.
And be blinded by the sun
To face the harsh reality, no matter how blinding.
You said you were in love but the games you played
Recognizing the deception in the name of love.
I hope that you're having fun
Questioning the enjoyment derived from playing with emotions.
You see I need you to take off my shades,
Seeking clarity and exposure to the truth.
And be blinded by the sun.
To endure the painful truth.
I wear my sunglasses at night, so I can, so I can
Repetition of the desire to wear sunglasses at night as a metaphor for avoiding the harsh truth.
I wear my sunglasses at night, so I can, so I can
-I wear my sunglasses at night, so I can, so I can
-I wear my sunglasses at night, so I can, so I can
-You told me it's the truth but I'm still afraid
-I'm not the one who would jump the gun
-If I had proof I'd take off my shades
-And be blinded by the sun
-You said you were in love but the games you played
-I hope that you're having fun
-You see I need you to take off my shades,
-And be blinded by the sun.
