Retaliate Lyrics by Start Trouble

Every Solution Has Its Problems

2004

I caught you leaving, I was sleeping
With one eye open, I heard the door slam
Cigarette smells in the kitchen
Something's burning
I'm not listening to a word you've said
I couldn't tell you how many times
I almost went away
I couldn't tell you all the things
That I would like to say
I couldn't have you for a moment
And enjoy the day
I couldn't love you
But I gave you everything
And now I ache deep inside
I don't appreciate
I know it's not too late
To figure out my fate
And suddenly I had an epiphany
And I started to bleed
Yeah'
Chorus:
I'm such a genius
I don't see this turning my way
I guess I'll put you in a box
And throw the key away
I'll try to get in shape
Lose some weight, it's a way
To retaliate, to retaliate
I'm such a genius
I don't see this any other way
I guess I'll block you out
Forever in my memory
I'll try to get in shape
Lose some weight, it's a way
To retaliate
And it's the weekend, in the evening
And I'm staring at the ceiling
And I remember
All the reasons, you were cheating
You were keeping thought from me
And I had a feeling (I had a feeling)
I had a feeling (I had a feeling)
No, and I don't appreciate
I know it's not too late
To figure out my fate
And suddenly I had an epiphany
And I started to bleed
To bleed'
Chorus:
Yeah'
These are the things that you might go through in my shoes
Call it what you will, it feels so unreal until you lose
It's killing me, don't you see, I'm up in arms over you
For all the heartache and the pain you drove me to
I'll show you
I'm gonna get you back
I'm gonna make you pay
I'm gonna get you back
I will retaliate (x4)
