Lyrics
The Dagger
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I hope you've got an appetite
You're about to take back your words
The coldest dish ever served
Oh! Save your breath and
Just remember the promises
You've conjugated
Fifteen hundred days have passed
And here comes the payback
I'm exposing your true face
I'm exposing your true face
Soon the world will know you're just a thief
Just a thief
This is the dagger you deserve
Can't you see
That there's nowhere to go from here
You can't dodge from this sharpened blade
It's biting you back in the end
You can keep what you owe
You can spend what you stole
And I'll keep spitting spiteful words at your reputation
I'm exposing your true face
And I hope I've wrecked your credibility
There's no more place on this scene for you deadbeat
You filthy little thief
This is the dagger you deserve
