The Nearly Deads – Revenge lyrics

[Verse 1]
I was a starstruck girl and you promised the world
Try to sell me glass lies like diamonds and pearls
But it didn't take long for me to have my doubts
I shoulda known it all along, I shoulda figured you out

[Pre-Chorus]
And then you turned around and took it away
Your not even as good as a word you would say

[Chorus]
This is my revenge
The reason I exist
The reason I'll keep holding on
I'll prove you wrong
So don't come to my defense
I'm not so innocent
Your promises have come and gone
I'll prove you wrong
Over and over again
This is my revenge

[Verse 2]
If I could stop that girl, if I could make her see
It was too good to be true, she was so naive
On a tight grip guilt trip filled with dreams
Blind sighted living in a fantasy


[Pre-Chorus]
Cause they turned around and took it away
Not even as good as the words they say

[Chorus]
This is my revenge
The reason I exist
The reason I'll keep holding on
I'll prove you wrong
So don't come to my defense
I'm not so innocent
Your promises have come and gone
I'll prove you wrong
Over and over again

[Bridge]
Oh I'm moving on, [no lips? 1:54], oh well
I've found my way, outrun your hell
Stories over, it's the end
I'll never think of you again

[Chorus]
This is my revenge
The reason I exist
The reason I'll keep holding on
I'll prove you wrong
So don't come to my defense
I'm not so innocent
Your promises have come and gone
I'll prove you wrong

This is my revenge
The reason I exist
The reason I'll keep holding on
I'll prove you wrong
So don't come to my defense
I'm not so innocent
Your promises have come and gone
I'll prove you wrong
Over and over again

[Outro]
This is my revenge
(They've done all this, oh well)
This is my revenge
(I've found my way out of your hell)
This is my revenge
