Such a great song, they play hardcore punk while simultaneously putting most of the 'technically proficient' metal bands of that time to shame with ease. RIP Jason Sears
Lyrics: Feelings of rejection, no false hopes or misconception Just a burning in my head and in my heart Promises were made, friendship lost along the way A twisted path of lies, deception from the start The future lay in your hands with talk of stardom, all your plans We had our dreams, high hopes, we trusted you But the decisions that you made And the staring role you played Quickly made us realize what we must do And I gave my trust to you Got stabbed in the back and left for dead Why'd you do the things you do? With all the lies, deceit, wrong things got said Never expected this of you Should've known better than to do what I did I was blind and you were shrewd Had me eating from your hand like a naive little kid Laid down my guard wound up screwed! Betrayed! There comes a time in all our lives when quickly we must learn from our mistakes Now trusting no one, guard held high Second guessing all the chances that he takes We all must learn to use the term my friend To those deserving of the phrase Avoiding the pain and all the rage from knowing That you've been Betrayed Never again will I trust you Left for dead knife buried in my back I wish I would have knew Your sneakiness, plan of attack This is what you do Lying, cheating, and all that crap No chance for number two With my guard held high and my wall built strong Next time around I'll screw you! There comes the time in all of our lives When quickly we must learn from our mistakes Not knowing why we made them, just the outcome And the feelings they create Whether it's sadness, loss of trust, death, pain, forgiveness Love, joy, sex, happiness, or fate It's one of these, the biggest one, that I really hate It's a feeling you get when a trust so deep A trust between friends has been broken And you know you got played, it's that feeling... You straight up been Betrayed! Betrayed! Betrayed! Betrayed! Betrayed! Straight up been Betrayed! Betrayed! There comes the time in every life When quickly we must learn from our mistakes Betrayed! Now trusting no one Guard held high, second guessing All the chances that he takes... Betrayed!
Hey i was à fan from RKL great band , ive seen you in concert 1989 in germany, i have à hc band manager INFECTED YOUTH 1987-1990 i love your vocals and music.
@@brian_snapp unfortunately no. Born a few years too late for that opportunity. A buddy of mine(RIP Russle Tha Muscle) introduced me to RKL one afternoon during a frenzious speed fueled bender and we listened to every single track we could find. Betrayed being the first I would ever hear and instantly love. Hearing that fuckin bass is still so fuckin rad today!
@@voidofhope6259 that guy certainly does shred that bass. Like I said, I saw them about 8 times. The last time being about a year before Jason died. They played a small club in San Diego called the Epicenter. Also saw Battalion of Saints there. Speed bender? Haven't been on one of those since 2000. Quit for good after starting to date who is now my wife (22 years and counting). Yeah, I'm one of them older punks. You'll now find us standing in the back at shows 😀. Have a great day 🙋🏻♂️
Went and saw Lagwagon last night with The Almighty Trigger Happy opening. The show was awesome and reminded me how much I love and miss RKL, I’ve been jamming RKL all morning
