Revenge it ain't a sweet thing, revenge it ain't a sweet thing.
I heard a rumor today, that you were coming my way.
I felt the sickness, the shame, then the anger.
You saw my faith in you bend, it was a means to your end.
And when you said I was blind I believed you.
And when you laughed as I bled, I swore that there would be death.
I guess that revenge it ain't such a sweet thing.
*Chorus*
I thought you knew you were my best friend.
I thought our trust would stick it out to the end
You took my love for granted
You said I wasn't worth it
You said I was so lovesick
Looks like I'm coming after you.
Revenge it ain't a sweet thing, revenge it ain't a sweet thing
Revenge it ain't a sweet thing, revenge it ain't a sweet thing
For everything that you took from that last hostile look
I knew my mission was made with a mark
I watched your face as you slept, those vicious secrets I kept
You showed your colors, now it's hard to hide
So look who's laughing loud now
I got that feeling of power
I guess that revenge it ain't such a sweet thing.
*Chorus*
Let me show you something that you don't know about yourself
This burning feeling is about to get hot like hell
The consequence of what you did about to be revealed
This deal that you made with me is about to be sealed
*Chorus*
