high & dry

Throwing empty threats

Across at me in passing and I thought

That you had grown on up

But now I see you've been acting

So childish and immature

You hurt me with your words

Called me a friend and played pretend

But you've got it all backwards

And I know

That when all you wanna do is hurt me

And you'll see

There’s little reward in stinging me like a bee

I've seen your glare, your nasty looks

Plotting scare after scare

Don't come for me, I’ll fight right back

It’s not fun if you won’t play fair

Oh me, oh my

Not gonna let this one by

Oh me, oh my

Karma's got you high and dry

Maybe you slipped away

With your nasty words in the past

But oh not I

I've taken my share of shots

And I swear I'll be your last

So unaware and ignorant

I swear you choose to ignore

The subtle hints and warnings

That you feel aren't called for

And I know

That when all you wanna do is hurt me

And you'll see

There’s little reward in stinging me like a bee

I've seen your glare, your nasty looks

Plotting scare after scare

Don't come for me, I’ll fight right back

It’s not fun if you won’t play fair

Oh me, oh my

Not gonna let this one by

Oh me, oh my

Karma's got you high and dry

And I thought

We could make it work

And I wanted

To give you a chance

But you just threw it all away

So now, I'm gonna hold my stance

And I know

That when all you wanna do is hurt me

And you'll see

There’s little reward in stinging me like a bee

I've seen your glare, your nasty looks

Plotting scare after scare

Don't come for me, I’ll fight right back

It’s not fun if you won’t play fair
