  • Once again the same things on your mind
    Increasing pulse from what goes on inside
    Will you pay for what you've done, hatred
    Payback's such a bitch her vengeance haunts you

    So what's wrong tough guy why the tears
    You drove me to this now you disappear
    Now all those acts repaid
    Your turn to be afraid
    Not longer almost done
    Oh, God, just what have I become?

    Now all those acts repaid
    Your turn to be afraid
    Not longer almost done
    Oh, God, just what have I become?

    Try to fight you only make things worse
    Screams of agony your final verse
    Now you're begging for your life, breathless
    All the times I bled my vengeance takes you

    So what's wrong tough guy why the tears
    You drove me to this now you disappear
    Now all those acts repaid
    Your turn to be afraid
    Not longer almost done
    Oh, God, just what have I become?

    Now all those acts repaid
    Your turn to be afraid
    Not longer almost done
    Oh, God, just what have I become?

    Your sweetest dreams turn into tears
    It's almost done
    They're almost gone

    Our darkest days they fade away
    It's almost done
    They're almost gone

    So what's wrong tough guy why the tears?
    You drove me to this now you disappear

    So what's wrong tough guy why the tears?
    You drove me to this now you disappear

    Now all this acts repaid
    Your turn to be afraid
    Not longer almost done
    Oh, God, just what have I become?

    Now all this acts repaid
    Your turn to be afraid
    Not longer almost done
    Oh, God, just what have I become? Writer/s: Jason James, Matthew Tuck, Michael Paget, Michael Thomas
