Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You can say what you think
But I don't want to see your face
Let them think what they think
'Cause I won't bail you out on this
[Verse 2]
You've got a nerve to show your face
In light of what you did
And now the memory takes its place
What that's you said they did?
[Verse 3]
You dish it out, but now it's plain to see that you can't take
When you're the one to blame, but now I see that you've been fake
You dish it out, but now it's plain to see that you can take
Always the one to blame, but now I see that you've been playing
[Verse 4]
Took yourself to the brink
You'd think by now, I'd know your game
Where the lie's indistinct
But then the truth is not the same
[Verse 5]
You've got a nerve to show your face
In light of what you did
And now the memory takes its place
What's that they said you did to me?
[Verse 6]
You dish it out, but now it's plain to see that you can't take
If you're the one to blame, but now I see that you've been playing
You dish it out, but now it's plain to see that you can take
Always the one to blame, but now I see that you can break
[Verse 7]
When you're slave to the drink
Well, I don't want to know your name
When you lie, double-think
Then we are done and that's a shame
[Verse 8]
You've got a nerve to show your face
In light of what you did
And now the memory takes its place
What that's you said or did to me?
[Verse 9]
You dish it out, but now it's plain to see that you can't take
Always the one to blame, but now I see that you've been fake
You dish it out, but now it's plain to see that you can't take
Always the one to blame, but now I see that you've been played
[Verse 10]
A nerve to show your face
In light of what you did
And now the memory takes its place
What that's you said or did?
[Verse 11]
You've got a nerve, you've got a nerve
You've got a nerve, you've got a nerve
[Verse 12]
You've got a nerve, you've got a nerve
(In light of what you did)
You've got a nerve, you've got a nerve
(What's that you said or did?)
[Verse 13]
You've got a nerve, you've got a nerve
(In light of what you did)
You've got a nerve, you've got a nerve
(What's that you said or did?)
