Daughtry – Traitor lyrics
[Verse:]
I'm not a criminal
I'm not the villain
Yea, this is personal
A drive by killing

[Verse:]
Your guns are loaded
Lies are the bullets
So here is the trigger
Go ahead, pull it now

[Pre-Chorus:]
Are you sure you wanna play this game?
Are you sure you wanna play it?

[Chorus:]
The only thing worse than a hater
The only thing worse than a hater
Is a traitor
A traitor
A traitor
Put the knife right in my back
Killed any history we had
Now it's war
War

[Verse:]
We were just like brothers
And we had each other
We were down for the good times
We were there for the trouble

[Verse:]
Like a thief in the night
Broad daylight
You stole all my sanity
Now you are the enemy yea

[Pre-Chorus:]
Are you sure you wanna play this game?
Are you sure you wanna play this?

[Chorus:]
The only thing worse than a hater
The only thing worse than a hater
Is a traitor
A traitor
A traitor
Put the knife right in my back
Killed any history we had
Now it's war
War

[Bridge:]
I should feel sorry for you
Watching you drown in your denial
But I can't feel sorry for you
Watching you drown cause you're a traitor

[Chorus:]
The only thing worse than a hater
The only thing worse than a hater
Is a traitor
A traitor
A traitor
Put the knife right in my back
Killed any history we had
Now it's war
War

[Chorus:]
The only thing worse than a hater
The only thing worse than a hater
Is a traitor
A traitor
A traitor
Put the knife right in my back
Killed any history we had
Now it's war
War
