Consider It Mutual Lyrics
Every time I look around my name is on your lips. Every time I look around you’re further away. Every time I look around my name is on your lips. Every time I look around you’re fading away.
We taught you how to build an empire, you showed us how to tear it down. These past few years have changed my life. I won’t give up without a fight.
If it’s true that I can be replaced. Why is it that I, cannot be erased. I can see that you’re letting go, it’s kinda funny that you’ll never know I am already gone.
It’s time you recognize somethings you can never fight. Will you ever learn? When will you learn? I’m making progress, I’m where I should be. I’ll use the rage that flows through me.
If it’s true that I could be replaced. Why is it that I, cannot be erased. I can see that you’re letting go, it’s kinda funny that you’ll never know I am already gone.
I never ran away, it was more of an escape. Bitterness will plague your night’s always.
My story as told by you couldn’t be more wrong. Just wait for the headlines it won’t be long.
I kept your dirty secrets, your private life you hide from all those who hold you up high. I don’t need to hide behind a lie. If friends are friends for never, you were never a friend at all!
We all know you’re getting old. You should just let go (just let go). You can’t keep it going. I promise you, you’re coming down.
Look at me and see what you could have been.(2X

This song is about Telle getting a situation off his chest. There was a song written about him and he's just "considering it mutual" by writing a song about them as well. He's basically just defending himself.
“Consider It Mutual" was one of my favorite songs to write for one big reason: I was able to really get a lot off of my chest and share my side of the story about a song written about me. I've always been the type of person to avoid conflict, but writing is my release. I felt it would be appropriate given the mood of this song to use it as a way to move forward. This song is the least structured on Deceiver, and I wanted to try some different with vocal techniques, so this one really stands out on the album."
im guessing this song might be about Craig Mabbitt,i guess he is considering it mutual? becuase he replaced him in the word alive after they left Craig Mabbitt.

... No. It's about Greeley Estates. He ditched them 8 days before their headlining tour to join TWA, so they wrote the song "Friends are Friends for Never" about him. Then he came with this as a response. He even says, "If friends are friends for never, then we were never friends at all."
