Revenge

You can drag my name through bleach and muddy waters

See if I don't still call you a friend until the dying end

And if you ever thought you were in for nasty weather

I'd say go on and build a shelter out of my bones and skin

It's just fine if you're not sorry, I'm afraid I may be in time

Try so hard to want for nothing, not a damn thing is mine

Although the thought of you at times make me cringe

And there ain't no sweetness in revenge, no

There ain't no sweetness in revenge, no

You lined our bed with razors and barbed wire

Thinking if and when you still desire I'd lay down with you like a fool

Heard it said it's best to let the wicked all just fall on their own snares

But it's hard to know the difference though when we both just been so cruel

I'm not talking about a forgiveness that only serve me

I'm talking about forgiving all I thought we could be

And I know sometimes I fly off the hinge

And there ain't no sweetness in revenge, no

Ain't no sweetness in revenge, no

You left me gagged and bound and stranded on a dusty lonesome desert highway

Just to find when you got home I was sitting waiting there for you

Heard you say under your breath, this boy just don't know when to quit

When it comes to standing by your side ain't much more I'd rather do

Now I'm black and blue and bloody

From this war I'll never win

And I'm tired and defeated, everybody's heard my spin

I just hope the end is where the better things begin

And there ain't no sweetness in revenge, no

Ain't no sweetness in revenge, no

Ain't no sweetness in revenge, no

Ain't no sweetness in revenge, no

Right
