  • Oh oh oh oh oh oh
    Oh oh oh oh oh oh
    Someone should teach you some manners

    I wish I had a camera
    I think you've got more nerve than you've got tact
    I wanna take a picture
    Of the look when your words bite your back
    Remember how I showed you out just like that

    What do you see when you close your eyes
    Do you sleep
    I know you do and I'm not surprised
    While your ego keeps you warm
    It's burning
    All the bridges that you start

    We tried
    Oh, we tried
    What goes around comes around
    Now it's right back here to haunt you

    We tried
    (I earned my wings teaching guys like you)
    Oh, we tried
    (To keep your mouth shut, so keep your mouth shut)
    Now you lost what I found
    But I'm right back here to haunt you

    Oh oh oh oh oh oh
    And now I'm right back here

    You're so transparent
    I see straight through your empty chest
    And spineless back
    I've seen enough not to trust
    I think enough is enough

    You got too close
    You know I'm terrible
    At keeping track of sleep
    It always seems to sneak away
    Along with wolves like you
    Dressed as counting sheep

    We tried
    Oh, we tried
    (I kept my mouth shut, I kept my mouth shut)
    What goes around comes around
    Now it's right back here to haunt you

    We tried
    (I earned my wings teaching guys like you)
    Oh, we tried
    (To keep your mouth shut, so keep your mouth shut)
    Now you lost what I found
    But I'm right back here to haunt you

    Hey!

    It always seems to slip away
    I'm taking back what is mine
    What is left is here to haunt you
    (Hey!)
    It always seems to slip away

    Don't even know what you lost
    But I hope this will remind you
    You can never be honest
    Remind you
    Not the first or the last
    I promise

    We tried
    Oh, we tried
    (I kept my mouth shut, I kept my mouth shut)
    What goes around comes around
    Now it's right back here to haunt you

    We tried
    (I earned my wings teaching guys like you)
    Oh, we tried
    (To keep your mouth shut, so keep your mouth shut)
    Now you lost what I found
    But I'm right back here to haunt you

    Oh oh oh oh
    Now I'm right back here
    Oh oh oh oh
    And now I'm right back here to haunt you Writer/s: CAMERON HURLEY, JOHN FELDMANN, JORDAN ECKES, MICHAEL FERRI, ROBERT CHIANELLI, TAYLOR JARDINE
