Can you feel the tension in the air
Assuring you once again I’m there
So you break my trust, you break my heart
I break your fall, your fall
So I lied, don't say you've done the same without a smile upon your face
Cause once you've but tasted of this fruit that lay, a serpent swayed your ways
Which brings me to my next thought, walk these roads as crooked as they be
So I lied, and so we lie
Can you feel the tension in the air
Assuring you once again I’m there
So you break my trust, you break my heart
I break your fall
So I lie, this time I face the sky without a smile without a trace
And I don't just see blue
I choose to... with still no sign of you
Which brings me to my next thought, don't be fooled by the cunning ways of the truth
And so I lied, and so we lie
Weakened knees belong to those who find it hard to believe but so intrigued by the thought of someone somehow meeting their needs
By the thought of someone, somewhere meeting our needs
Without tension in the air
Assuring you once again I’m there
You break my trust, you break my heart
I break your fall
Can you feel the tension in the air
Assuring you once again I’m there
Cause you break my trust, you break my heart
I break your fall
Assuring you once again I’m there
So you break my trust, you break my heart
I break your fall, your fall
Cause once you've but tasted of this fruit that lay, a serpent swayed your ways
Which brings me to my next thought, walk these roads as crooked as they be
So I lied, and so we lie
Assuring you once again I’m there
So you break my trust, you break my heart
I break your fall
And I don't just see blue
I choose to... with still no sign of you
Which brings me to my next thought, don't be fooled by the cunning ways of the truth
And so I lied, and so we lie
By the thought of someone, somewhere meeting our needs
Assuring you once again I’m there
You break my trust, you break my heart
I break your fall
Assuring you once again I’m there
Cause you break my trust, you break my heart
I break your fall

This song is about the book, "The Screwtape Letters," by C.S. Lewis. Read the book...it's awesome. It's a dialogue between Satan and one of his workers in which he's telling the worker how to destroy a man.
