Revenge is as ugly as Me

"Vengeance Is Mine"

your stare
cuts the temperature in half
your glare
turns the room into a gilded cage
I can see your fiery breath hanging in the air
would it kill you to know I didn't care?

*I feel your claws scraping my back
and now I know how to attack
but there is one thing that you lack
my fire
I could always turn around
but it's too late for that now
make your familiar sound
you liar
and when your heart breaks down
every piece touching the ground
and I'm nowhere to be found
you'll remember*

your eyes
reveal the secrets you thought were hidden
your lies
prove your act is all just smoke and mirrors
if your mask slipped could you be real for a minute?
or would you shrivel without a face hiding in it?

*I feel your claws scraping my back
and now I know how to attack
but there is one thing that you lack
my fire
I could always turn around
but it's too late for that now
make your familiar sound
you liar
and when your heart breaks down
every piece touching the ground
and I'm nowhere to be found
you'll remember
you'll remember
you'll remember*

but her speech is like razors
and I don't think she'd even notice me
advances don't seem to phase her
she's a lot harder when she breathes
she's a lot softer when she bleeds

*I feel your claws scraping my back
and now I know how to attack
but there is one thing that you lack
my fire
I could always turn around
but it's too late for that now
make your familiar sound
you liar
and when your heart breaks down
every piece touching the ground
and I'm nowhere to be found
you'll remember
you'll remember
you'll remember*

what retribution feels like
what my vengeance tastes like
so say goodnight
so say goodnight
