Is revenge ever sweet?
Revenge



I hear your voice; it’s so vivid and strong.
Are you telling me right, or leading me wrong?
I hear what you’re saying; don’t do this to me.
If I do this now, do you think I’ll ever be free?

Your voice comes through loud and clear.
I don’t know whether to cry or cheer.
This is almost like you’re badgering me now.
You know this is not like me, to avoid a row.

You shouldn’t talk to me like this.
If you were alive, I’d ask for a kiss.
You want me to stop and walk away?
You know I can’t do that – I’ve got to stay.

I can see right here what happened to you.
Those rat bastards, not just a few;
Destroyed our lives, and sent you to the grave.
I hear you now, but I’m not going to behave.

I know their names now, and I know where they live.
Here’s what I’ll do, and here’s what I’ll give.
I’m going to visit each and every one.
I’ll have a little party, and we’ll have some fun.

There’s no more denying what I’m about to do.
I can’t tell you everything, until I’m through.
Today’s the day, that I’m going to start.
So stop whispering in my ear, before I depart.

Okay it’s finished, my deeds are done.
Payback’s a dickhead, and not really fun.
I took care of business, if it’s alright to say?
They’re all in Hell, and for this I may pay?

It’s over now, so I hope you can rest in peace.
Your voice is gone, I knew it would cease.
I hope you don’t hate me, for that, there’d be no cure.
I had to do it, of this I am sure.

Goodbye my love, I hope you see,
You’re in my heart, and always will be.
I’ll never forget, the times we shared;
I did what I did, because I cared.
