Switchfoot - Revenge lyrics

rate me

With thoughts of revenge, revenge, revenge

I watched you from my terminal view

As you struggled to ride to your end

I laughed hard at the insults we threw

As the weight of the world found revenge, revenge, revenge

Have hatred and gravity won?

The world hung upside down

I drew first blood

I drew first blood

My hate for a crown

I drew first blood

I drew first blood

Revenge

I watched heaven die in a day

And I'm gonna die here tonight

I'm a villian

I deserve to be dead

I been hung up for wreckin' my life

Revenge, Revenge

So I stopped for a moment

To look at the sun

Dying that day

When the irony hit me

That this was revenge

That love had defended and stolen our pain away

We consumed heaven's son

I drew first blood

I drew first blood

But my hate was undone

I drew first blood

I drew first blood

Revenge

Here's a story

How a theif had been lost

How a murder has stolen my rage

Think of me, Lord

I'm a few breaths away

As my lungs finally rip from the cage

Revenge, revenge
