[verse 1] I thought we had a love I thought it was forever But you broke my heart on purpose We couldn’t stay together I can understand your feelings changed But why couldn’t you just leave? You had to hurt me; you made me cry And I don’t even care why I’m telling you now I won’t go down quiet Better watch your back ‘Cause I’m not over yet! [pre-chorus] You think you can hurt me And just walk away? You think you can shame me And love another day? [chorus] You kissed her right in front of me It broke me up inside You only did it to hurt me You tried to smash my pride You laughed when you saw my face I’ll never understand that pleasure But I won’t go quietly into the dark That’s one thing you forgot to measure I’ll pay you back, you should’ve known I would Revenge won’t change a thing But it sure as hell feels good! [verse 2] I don’t want you back I won’t love anyone so cruel But I can use your heartlessness As a payback tool I’ll bide my time There’s no need to rush Perhaps I’ll leave you painful clues Before the final crush So look over your shoulder Be afraid of the dark You’ll never see it coming But it’ll bite you like a shark [pre-chorus] You think you can hurt me And just walk away? You think you can humiliate me And laugh another day? [chorus] You kissed her right in front of me It broke me up inside You only did it to hurt me You tried to smash my pride You laughed when you saw my face I’ll never understand that pleasure But I won’t go quietly into the dark That’s one thing you forgot to measure I’ll pay you back, you should’ve known I would Revenge won’t change a thing But it sure as hell feels good! [instrumental break: sharp, clean guitar solo with driving bass and syncopated drums] [bridge] I’ll show you how funny My tears really are You turned my heart cold You left an ugly scar So don’t get comfy In your superiority I’m coming for you You’re not home free [verse 3] You’ll never see it coming There is no way to prepare You’re the one who froze my heart You’re the one who taught me not to care I learned from the best How to give hurt for no reason How to smile and act so cold While committing love’s treason [final chorus] You kissed her right in front of me It broke me up inside You only did it to hurt me You tried to smash my pride You laughed when you saw my face I’ll never understand that pleasure But I won’t go quietly into the dark That’s one thing you forgot to measure I’ll pay you back, you should’ve known I would Revenge won’t change a thing But it sure as hell feels good! Revenge may not be the sweetest thing But it will sure as hell feel good!
