Lyrics
When you finally realise who I am
I know you’ll be surprised.
You won’t believe you’ve been deceived
That you’ve swallowed all my lies
When it comes to treachery I know a thing or two
I can fake sincerity and make a lie ring true
That’s why they call me the deceiver

If you’re wondering why I picked on you
Let me set your mind at rest
I select my victims carefully
I only choose the best
The best ones are the girls that see the goodness in all men
Even a liar like me can win their trust and be their friend
That’s why they call me the deceiver

Middle bit
Trust me, I’m gonna make you a believer
Trust me, I’m gonna teach you how to be strong and survive
Trust me, when you’ve been taught by the deceiver
Trust, me, you will never ever forget what it means to feel alive

I robbed you of your innocence 
Your naivety I stole
The promises I made you 
Were as empty as my soul
Now you understand that some men like lie cheat
I taught you how it feels to be the victim of deceit
That’s why they call me the deceiver

When you came to me your heart was pure
And you trusted every one
That’s exactly why I don’t regret a single thing I’ve done
This cold hard heart of mine was forged in the hottest fires of Hell
And if you never trust another man I know I’ve taught you well
And they call me the deceiver

Yes, be proud of these lyrics,  which get straight to the point. The musical arrangement is matching lyrics sneaky. Now is the Deceiver the same character as When I'm With You song? Deceiver can be deceiving good because it teaches Little Red Riding Hood a lesson..

I love it.  Man that guitar and synth is so catchy.  When the backing vocals came I was hooked.  I would have loved a Bonham type drumming but that's just a preference.
