Retribution's sweet when you say that it's sober

Made your enemies can we claim that it's over

Keep your head over water

They're not gonna get to you no longer

Wish I could defeat them and set them on flame

Wish I could erase all the world of their name

But I can't stew in all the rage

When we're all playing on the same stage

Telling me it's not sensible

If they have a kind heart then it's plentiful

Forgetting that the core belief to having human decency is the ability to try and mend the holes

You shot

Now bear the consequence

Somehow learn to make amends

You know this song is for a certain friend

That there are times I want to give it all to get revenge

For them

Hyperventilating

Don't know how they handled the games you're playing

There's a difference between dislike and saying

That you wished that they were dead there's a line you crossed it

I know I was just like you

I was inexperienced and I had no clue

That the heart I broke could not be mended just by glue

That your ammunition targets your own bones too

Retribution's sweet when you say that it's sober

Made your enemies and they feign that it's over

I'll keep your head over water

They're not gonna get to you no longer

Wish I could defeat them and set them on flame

Wish I could erase all the world of their name

Rust is crawling up your cage

Standing by, I think I'll break

No saint, can't turn away

Crawling out your grave

Ask us to follow the leader

Expect us to obey

I'm the sinner you're the preacher

Are you ashamed?

Watching me watch you cooperate

Cast away the history of hate, try to tolerate

Put it all behind you

Forget the tale of enemies

Say you hadn't tried to

I'll wait for your apology

Heaven says I'll pick a narrative where mercy is

Imperative, and I'll hear you beg

Well, I'm listening.

Retribution's sweet when you say that it's sober

But it starts to reek once the joyride is over

Keep your head over water

They're not gonna get to you no longer

Wish I could defeat them and set them on flame

Wish I could erase all the world of their name

But I can't stew in all the rage

When we're all players on the same stage
