  • You sold me right up the river
    You had to hold me back
    You could've looked for the sunshine, yeah
    But you had to paint the whole thing black
    Now I'm back in the city
    The lights are up on me
    They tried to keep me locked away
    But hallelujah I feel free

    All your darkness has come back to you in time
    Brace yourself world, it's about to blow your mind

    It's coming round like a shockwave, hey
    It's coming round like a shockwave, hey
    You've played the game one too many times
    You're gonna burn until you behave, hey
    Maybe the shame will open your eyes
    It's coming round like a shockwave

    You made your bed all pretty
    You reap what you sow
    Backstabbed all your friends
    And yes it's all about who you know
    So don't you dare look my way
    To try to make you cry
    I don't have to do a thing to you
    'Cause it's coming from the starry sky

    All your darkness has come back to you in time
    Brace yourself world, it's about to blow your mind

    It's coming round like a shockwave, hey
    It's coming round like a shockwave, hey
    You've played the game one too many times
    You're gonna burn until you behave, hey
    Maybe the shame will open your eyes
    It's coming round like a shockwave, hey

    You're a snake
    You're a weasel
    You're a pebble in the sea
    And the pain you feel is washing over me

    It's coming round like a shockwave, hey
    It's coming round like a shockwave, hey
    You played the game one too many times
    You're gonna burn until you behave, hey
    Maybe the shame will open your eyes
    Maybe the shame will open your eyes
    Maybe the shame will open your eyes
    It's coming round like a shockwave Writer/s: Andrew Wyatt, Greg Kurstin, Liam Gallagher
