Revenge
Bridges to Nowhere Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You say "c'est la vie" but I know life's not fair,
don't ask for forgiveness you're not gonna change,
every time I see you I see fear on your face
'cause deep inside we both know I'll have revenge.

I've had enough
of you and maybe
I'm the one who's crazy
but I'll show no mercy.
You will be dead soon.
Your fat limbs will feed the streets and
I'll uncork champagne to
celebrate your doom.

Your thick red blood, the rain and your childish cry
blacken the concrete and confuse my eyes.
Since I've dreamed about this like one million times,
I don't know if it's real or all in my mind.

I've had enough
of you and maybe
I'm the one who's crazy
but I'll show no mercy.
You will be dead soon.
Your fat limbs will feed the streets and
I'll uncork champagne to
celebrate your doom.

Maybe
I'm the one who's crazy
but I'll show no mercy.
You will be dead soon.
Your fat limbs will feed the streets and




I'll uncork champagne to
celebrate your doom.

Guillermo Martínez del Camino Well, your friend was really good at bass. There are some songs I wish I had the bass tabs for because it sounded really good.
