Story Behind The Song
Deception was written by Brian Slack from 8th and his friend Eamon Kinsman while they were in a band together in college. 8th owns it exclusively.
Song Description
Deception is a song with alot of confidence. The music is at once complex and relaxed. The verses set a mood of almost floating mellowness, and the flow into the pre-chorus is at once natural and abrupt. These build to the chorus, a climactic rock anthem with post-hardcore aggressive vocals that cannot be ignored. 8th takes the rock ballad to another place entirely with this intense and hopeful rock anthem.

Lyrics
take with me my reason to leave
speak aloud time acts out belief
arrogance is the answer we all seek to realize
it is active
to realize there's something there
to realize it is active
to realign
deception lies in our question
absolution is realizing lies
freedom's achieved when your conscience dies.
comforter, find me a home- alone am I
this batch delivery
it violates my freedom
you're nothing without deception
deception breeds
go find me
