DeadDream (Mostly Complete Concept Album, Lyrics)

It's A Deal

I've held my end of the bargain
Now give me what I deserve
It's been a pleasure doing business with you
Another wonderful lesson learned
I've held my end of the bargain
Now give me what I deserve
It's been a pleasure doing business with you
Another wonderful lesson learned

I'm looking everywhere trying to find her medicine
Getting strange looks as if I was venomous
I'll save her life and that will be my testament
To prove to her that I speak truthful sentiment
We're all liars, but my word is sediment
Solid as a rock with no cracks or crevices
They can see my flaws, my awful blemishes
I will reach my goal although the path is treacherous
Then there's you, calling my attention
You hear my story and claim a connection
You say you know the way to kill the infection
But the sickness is something that I ain't even mentioned
I see you offering your suggestions
And it seems that you don't have many questions
I don't know you or your intentions
But I'll accept your offer with no rejections

It's a deal
I've held my end of the bargain
Now give me what I deserve
It's been a pleasure doing business with you
Another wonderful lesson learned
It's a deal
I've held my end of the bargain
Now give me what I deserve
It's been a pleasure doing business with you
Another wonderful lesson learned

Sealed the transaction, bought her remedy
Prove to her that I'm not the enemy
But what's this? Pushed me away so steadily
Almost as if she doesn't want anything to do with me
Treating me like I've got the black plague
Well why did I go and do this for her then?
She doesn't even see what I thought this really meant
But when I'm livin' in pretend, I guess that's what I get
This favor is slowly turning into regret
I thought she would've recognized my intent
And if we're gonna get technical, I've got her in my debt
If I were to leave, I know she'd plead and beg
If she really wants me gone, I'm not one to disappoint
Staying would make me feel like I was sucked of all my joy
Which I basically have been, my heart has been destroyed
So if you're mad at me that much, then there really is no point

It's a deal
I've held my end of the bargain
Now give me what I deserve
It's been a pleasure doing business with you
Another wonderful lesson learned
It's a deal
I've held my end of the bargain
Now give me what I deserve
It's been a pleasure doing business with you
Another wonderful lesson learned

When it's said and done, maybe we were better off
Staying separated, the spark is all but lost
No, no, no, we could've had much more
But neither of us could win in this damn world war
Not the first or second, but not even the third
This war is called "us", and it's a hell of a word
We'll never survive it, we'll never move along
And I don't know if you can, but I'll stay strong

It's a deal
It's a deal

I've held my end of the bargain (It's a deal)
Now give me what I deserve (It's a deal)
It's been a pleasure doing business with you (It's a deal)
Another wonderful lesson learned (It's a deal)
I've held my end of the bargain (It's a deal)
Now give me what I deserve (It's a deal)
It's been a pleasure doing business with you (It's a deal)
Another wonderful lesson learned (It's a deal)

It's a deal
