Karma on the Scales

[Verse 1] I walked through the fire, left a shadow on the floor Every lie I planted came back knocking at my door Karma bites in silence, but I feel it in my bones What I sent out to the universe returns to take me home [Pre-Chorus] And the scales keep moving, no one hides from what they've done Every broken promise, every bullet, every son Every tear I dropped in darkness turns to light I can't deny Justice sees me clearly when I look her in the eye [Chorus] Karma bites, karma bites Balancing the scales tonight What you take will come back twice Justice cuts through the lies Karma bites, karma bites No escape from what survives If I fall, I pay the price Balancing the scales of life [Verse 2] I was chasing empty power, I was running from the truth Now the mirror doesn't flinch when it reflects the proof Every wound I handed out is written in the air Now I'm standing in the answer, and the answer isn't fair [Pre-Chorus] And the scales keep moving, no one hides from what they've done Every broken promise, every bullet, every son Every tear I dropped in darkness turns to light I can't deny Justice sees me clearly when I look her in the eye [Chorus] Karma bites, karma bites Balancing the scales tonight What you take will come back twice Justice cuts through the lies Karma bites, karma bites No escape from what survives If I fall, I pay the price Balancing the scales of life [Bridge] Let the judgment rain down Let the past come out I won't run, I won't hide From the truth I left behind [Final Chorus] Karma bites, karma bites Balancing the scales tonight What you take will come back twice Justice cuts through the lies Karma bites, karma bites No escape from what survives In the end we pay the price Balancing the scales of life
