[Verse 1] I'm so tired of the stupid games you play If I sat outside would you come watch me wait? If I had a gun and shot it at your face Would you promise not to get out of the way? [Verse 2] If you happen to be able to avoid My first attack, I'll put a knife against your throat And cut an inch for every time I lost my self-control And you made me do the things I did at night when I got home [Pre-Chorus] But I thought you'd change, but I realize that today, today [Chorus] Evelyn I know you lied, but I'll tell you that I'm alive for the first time And I'm begging you to leave here now I'm begging you to stay away from me I know you lied. I'll tell you that I'm alive for the first time And I'm begging you to leave here now I'm begging you to die painfully So painfully [Verse 3] So this brings us to the backup of my plan Maybe I'll just have to strangle you with my bare hands Then you'll have to adhere to my demands And occupy a shallow grave, as shallow as you are [Pre-Chorus] But I thought they'd change but things just stayed the same, the same [Chorus] Evelyn I know you lied, but I'll tell you that I'm alive for the first time And I'm begging you to leave here now I'm begging you to stay away from me I know you lied, but I'll tell you that I'm alive for the first time And I'm begging you to leave here now I'm begging you to die [Bridge] Sometimes content leads, leads to stagnant And stagnant leads to contempt Contempt leads to the present Sometimes content leads, leads to stagnant And stagnant leads to contempt Contempt leads to the present [Pre-Chorus] But I thought you'd change, but things just stayed the same, the same [Chorus] Evelyn I know you lied, but I'll tell you that I'm alive for the first time And I'm begging you to leave here now I'm begging you to stay away from me I know you lied, but I'll tell you that I'm alive for the first time And I'm begging you to leave here now I'm begging you to die [Chorus] Evelyn I know you lied, but I'll tell you that I'm alive for the first time And I'm begging you to leave here now I'm begging you to stay away from me I know you lied, but I'll tell you that I'm alive for the first time And I'm begging you to leave here now Begging you to stay away from me
