Harvey Dent
He waits for the right moment
Strikes at the opportune time
On the surface it all seems perfect
Underneath, it’s all a lie
A smile is the best you’re given
But it never reaches his eyes
He’s good, he’ll be sure to tell you
But it’s just a thin disguise
Chorus
He’ll never make a groom
And he’s never a gent
All the days together
Won’t be time well spent
At best he’s a ruse
With full intent
To use and confuse
His mind’s all bent
Verse 2
His words will make you feel safer
But his motives are always unkind
Maybe he wants to be better
(but) Compassion’s in short supply.
In his world this is how it’s done now
He won’t fight by your side
His soul is truly broken
His heart, completely blind.
If you want to stay a part of his story
Your future doesn’t look bright
You’re just a mere accessory
To delusions in his mind.
He is the only hero
In the chapters of his life
His vision is rosy and clouded
No hope he’ll see the light.
Verse 3
You’ve come to the final stages
Here’s a word of advice
Walk right out of these pages
Turn away, and don’t think twice.
The view up ahead is gorgeous
You’ve got your own verses to write
Not much left in him to care for
If love’s your chosen prize.
Chorus
He’ll never make a groom
And he’s never a gent
All the days together
Won’t be time well spent
At best he’s a ruse
With full intent
To use and confuse
He’s Harvey Dent!
