Written in December of 2011 by Acacia C. herself and colleague Hayden Singleton. This is the song that started it all, the first song written out of all the songs on the upcoming Relapse album. Sweet Deceit kicked off a partnership in music between Hayden and Acacia that would bring the songs, Feel Good, Intangible, Cold, and more.
lyrics
I'm in love, I'm in love
Got me so deep
Didn't see ya comin' when you swept me off my feet
Hello
So chic and unique
You speak
Music in my ear so sweet
We, I, and you
Two love birds
We fly in the sky so blue
Floatin' on your cloud and I'm lost in serenity
The way you got me fiendin' you is such an inequity
It's just not fair
But I won't fight it
No
I need you 'round me because I like it
Oh
Baby, oh your love's got me strange
Late nights alone me just screamin your name
You're makin' me fatigued
I think I need a medic
Throwing you my heart
And boy you better catch it
Your love is wrong
It's just not right
You're making me violent, but
I can't win this fight
It's more bitter than sweet, your truth deceives
Pleasure, pain, loss, and gain...
It's more bitter than sweet, your truth deceives
Pleasure, pain, loss, and gain...
Like a butterfly caught in a net that's how you got me babe
You cut my wings off and now I can't get away
You are my opium
I need you more and more
This love and this lust got me on the floor
And I can still taste you on my lips
The way your hands caress my curves and my hips
You tingle down my spine
Your magic in my eye
You make me feel so beautiful
Somethin' that feels this good has got to be bad
And this crazy love is really drivin' me mad
Insane to a point I can't stand it
Beyond infatuation still don't know how I'mma manage
Emotions bleedin' out I think I need a bandage
The way you give this sweet deceit is so underhanded
Your love is wrong
It's just not right
You're making me violent, but
I can't win this fight
It's more bitter than sweet, your truth deceives
Pleasure, pain, loss, and gain...
It's more bitter than sweet, your truth deceives
Pleasure, pain, loss, and gain...
