Betrayed |
| Betrayed |
| By the one who says she loves you |
| By the one who says she needs you |
| Above all other men |
| Betrayed |
| By her fragile, vicious beauty |
| Her father did his duty |
| And I lay down betrayed |
| Justice taught her confidence |
| Her mother was like steel |
| Her cousins, they’re all convicts |
| She alone rose above that wheel |
| But a motorcyclist no matter how good |
| Is slave to the oncoming truck |
| And the poison of her father was |
| Her most pitiless luck |
| Betrayed |
| By the one who says she loves you |
| By the one who says she needs you |
| Above all other men |
| Betrayed |
| By her fragile, vicious beauty |
| Her father did his duty |
| And I lay down betrayed |
| Three of us lie in this bed |
| Night of infamy |
| One of us lies on our back |
| Her father’s in her head |
| And quick she turns and slaps my face |
| And with her eyes open wide, she screams |
| «I hate you, I hate you, I hate you.» |
| But she’s looking right past me |
| Betrayed |
| By the one who says she loves you |
| By the one who says that she needs you |
| Above all other men |
| Betrayed |
| By her fragile, vicious beauty |
| Her father did his duty |
| And I lay down betrayed |
| And I lay down betrayed |
| I lay down betrayed |
