lyrics

Here’s the story:
If she could just ignore him
Or just say no
Why does she adore him?
I just don’t know
If I could bar the door
Or build a wall
But she’d let him in it
Restart and begin it again

Through eye of needle and point of pin
I’ll fix that boy so he can’t win
I’ll watch him burn, see me grin
I’m no little bully boy, unlike him
I mean business, business
Revenge

If she could just ignore him
Or just say no
Why does she adore him?
I just don’t know
If I could bar the door
Or build a wall
But she’d let him in it
Restart and begin it again

If my bones must go to rope
I’ll take him with me and see him choke
I’ll make him suffer for what he’s done
She’s my daughter, and he’s my son
I need justice, justice
Revenge

When I look in her eyes
I see all his lies
When I look in his eyes
I see nothing
They are dead
The children that I raised are dead

If she had just ignored him
Or just said no
Why did she adore him?
I just don’t know
If I could’ve barred the door
Or built a wall
But she’d’ve let him in it
And she’d have let him do it again
Again, again, again, again
