Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Payback
Payback's for kids and you say that
I act like a kid but
It's 4:45 in the mornin'
Yelling at the top of our god-damn voices
We both know it's wrong
But we're actin'
Tend to get along
You're an actress
[Verse 2]
Keep the high horses
In the stable
There's a dish served cold
On the table
[Verse 3]
Payback
You're full of it and you say that
To fuck with my head but
You know that I got a thick skull
It'll be the death of me, oh, I don't listen
Is this what revenge
Really tastes like?
I lost all my friends
To the night life
[Verse 4]
Well, baby, let's get numb
'Cause I can't run from all of this
(No more)
[Verse 5]
I want payback
Heart attack served in a wine glass
Now I can't relax
Give me one more god-damn minute
I just need one more god-damn minute
[Verse 6]
Could you last a day
In my position?
Understand the pain
You're dismissin'
[Verse 7]
Oh, but you can't change
You're a statue
You can't break me down
To amuse you
[Verse 8]
Payback
Payback's a bitch and you say that
I act like a bitch but
It's 4:45 and I'm leavin'
I lost all the air in my lungs to the screamin'
I lost all the love in my heart to the demons
I lost all the things that I use to believe in
I lost everything for no god-damn reason
Payback
