"Eye For An Eye" lyrics

You carved your name right through my trust
Smiled so sweet while it turned to rust
I bit my tongue 'til it bled on the floor
You kept your halo hanging on my door

It's an eye for an eye
You took yours, now I take mine
You drew the line in gasoline
So, I lit the sky
You wanted war in disguise
Well, I stopped trying to be kind
You broke my heart, watched it die
It's an eye for an eye

You kept receipts folded in your sleeve
Every small failure you pinned on me
Now every secret scratches at your glass
You taught me cold, now I freeze you back

It's an eye for an eye
You took yours, now I take mine
You drew the line in gasoline
So, I lit the sky
You wanted war in disguise
Now you taste your own design
You wrote the script, made me cry
It's an eye for an eye

Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh

Thought I'd stay praying, thought I'd stay still
But mercy kept slipping right off this hill
You said I was crazy, you called it a phase
Look in the mirror, see your own face

Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh
