Treason treason
Cunning cold calculating
Treason treason
Darkly waiting infiltrating

Each kiss contains its own betrayal
Scratch me with your painted nail
Sorrow slowly turns to dread
Treason sneaks into your bed

Treason treason treason
The dead black eyes of the adder
Treason treason treason

Don't look for help, you're on your own
Your lover loves another and won't come home
Broken promisses broken light
White is black, black is white

Steady rhythm, even beat
Don't talk back, turn the other cheek
Keep it straight, keep it fair
Talk out of line, if you dare

Who can tell who is the traitor?
Who is the lover? Who is the hater?
Don't make me look, I don't want to see
Is everyone a traitor or is it just me?

Each kiss contains its own betrayal
Scratch me with your painted nail
Sorrow slowly turns to dread
Treason sneaks into your bed
