Solace In Exile – New Acquaintances... And Absent Friends lyrics

New acquaintances and absent friends
Words and music by Michael Lambeth

You don't really know me, so how judge me?
You have a blindness, but I know what I see.

Looks can be deceiving, so can a play on words.
Lying, manipulating, it's all born of arrogance.

I stop to look at you and I'm pondering.

You are the one that preaches ignorance and hatred,
You are the one that gloats and sneers at me!
I was the one you used and manipulated,
I was the one you used and back stabbed me!

Red- I see red!

You were friends with me and I were friends with you.
You told me a pack of lies and I trusted you!

Blaming others for your misfortunes and living life by hate and fear.
From your hate become ideas of poison, you don't listen to how others hear.

I stop to look at you and I'm pondering.

You are the one that preaches ignorance and hatred,
You are the one that gloats and sneers at me!
I was the one you used and manipulated,
I was the one you used and back stabbed me!

Red- I see red!

Losers gain nothing from what they've lost.
Only petty gains at others cost.
Face reality, your life's so empty!

Your not fooling anybody else,
Your only hiding from your self.
Your jealousy, your insecurity!

Your jealous of me, your jealous of me,
Your jealous of me and you can't deal with it!
Your jealous of me, you criticize me,
Your jealous of me and you won't admit to it!

We make new friends, go from old to new.
Can I come in, I'm inept to you.
I'll just return a favour for an old friend,
After all it's the least I could do!

I stop to look at you and I'm pondering.

You are the one that preachs ignorance and hatred,
You are the one that gloats and sneers at me!
I was the one you used and manipulated,
I was the one you used and back stabbed me!

Red- I see red!
