Odd to get even

Friend:

Did you like what you did today?

Could it be wrong or is it OK?

Did he cheat on you? Were you honest too?

Have you been untrue?

 

Long before you realized

(Ex: Took some time for me to realize)

Did he get you hypnotized

(That this woman got me hypnotized)

Was his love that made your head

(She was clearly getting in my head)

Running over, make you mad

(Tryin' to run me over, make me mad)

 

In that magic night, did you feel alright

Set your soul alight

Promised paradise, you paid a heavy price

Left you just with lies

 

Never thought he could be so mean

Evil has a face now you’ve seen

Sad to say he won't regret his sheer

 

Lies, prevaricate, deceit

(Tell your fuckin' lies don't let me drown in your deceit)

Waste, bereavement and defeat

(I won't waste my time because I notice when you cheat)

Lies, prevaricate, deceit

(Tell your fuckin' lies don't make me drown in your deceit)

Waste, bereavement and defeat

(Tired of all your stories and your greed)

 

Me:

Let me get this sorted out

Payback time away from the crowd

Making plans nobody knows

Fierce revenge, anything goes

Quentin style, over the top

Rocking hard, until you drop

Making up, just like before

Compromise, not anymore

 

Sense the hurt, what does it take

Feel the pain, everything's fake

Then why should you bother

When you run into another guy

Revenge is soon forgotten

You will be the same girl as before

Friend:

In that magic night, did you feel alright

Set your soul alight

 

Long before you realize

(Took some time for me to – I won’t waste my time because I notice when you cheat)

He won’t get you hypnotized

(That this woman got me - Tired of all your stories and of all your fantasies)

None will make you lose your head

(Tell your fuckin' lies don't make me drown in your deceit - in my head)

Doing things you might regret

(Tired of all your stories, all your fantasies and greed - Might regret)

 

Me:

Compromise, ready to score

Sensitive, just like before

No more pain, what does it take

Do you care whether it's fake

Why on earth would you bother

He is just like any other guy you've ever met

Guy you'll ever get

Guy out of your head

A guy you will forget

Guy that has managed to get in your bed
