I'm thinking of the times that I've looked around
Searching for the great ideal
But the human race wears an ugly face
And cosmetics wash off in the rain

I'm thinking of the night that my heart took flight
Only to come crashing down
And I had just enough eyes left to see you leave
Arm and arm through the door

Revenge
I watched you go
Revenge
The rest I know
Revenge
The true blood's plain
Revenge
I fell insane

I'm thinking of myself and I find it strange
To know that you are really mine
But I think of your past like broken glass
The pieces who are people I still meet

And everywhere we go, it seems
They call you by your name
They greet you with a little kiss
And say they're glad you came

Revenge
It makes me ill
Revenge
If only looks could kill
Revenge
The word's your friend
Revenge
Oh, it really is

And this is how I'm feeling now
Angered and dissolved
And this is how this song will end
Somewhat unresolved
