Joke
T.V. Killers Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Keep it to yourself
I don't wanna hear your lies right now
No matter what you say
I can't look at you the same
You're a joke
I cannot believe my eyes right now
I'm filling up with hate
You're the one I have to blame
You said you're sorry but you're not
You're only sorry you got caught
I won't forgive you I cannot
No way would I
Yeah you're sorry but you're not
You're only sorry you got caught
I won't forgive you I cannot
No way would I
Yeah
What you thought I'd never find out
Playing games with my brain
I called a time out
Yeah, your friend snitched in 4k
Had a man in your bed
Cuddled up in your place
What a shame
And you denied it all
Said it was a joke
But not to me
No, no it's not at all
So goodbye and good riddance
How you gonna sit and lie
And act like you didn't
I lost trust
Who gives a fuck what the truth is
You probably fucked him like a slut
What the fuck I'm not stupid
And how can you deny
I got video to prove it
So just shut the fuck up
I'm so tired of excuses
You can keep it to yourself
I don't wanna hear your lies right now
No matter what you say
I can't look at you the same
You're a joke
I cannot believe my eyes right now
I'm filling up with hate
You're the one I have to blame
You said you're sorry but you're not
You're only sorry you got caught
I won't forgive you I cannot
No way would I
Yeah you're sorry but you're not
You're only sorry you got caught




I won't forgive you I cannot
No way would I

Don't bother sharing your lies with me

I have no interest in listening to your dishonesty at this moment


No matter what you say
Regardless of your words


I can't look at you the same
My perception of you has forever changed


You're a joke
You are ridiculous and absurd


I cannot believe my eyes right now
I am in disbelief at what I am seeing


I'm filling up with hate
Anger is consuming me


You're the one I have to blame
You are the reason behind all this


You said you're sorry but you're not
Your apology is insincere


You're only sorry you got caught
You regret being exposed, not your actions


I won't forgive you I cannot
I refuse to grant you forgiveness, it's impossible


No way would I
Under no circumstances would I forgive you


What you thought I'd never find out
Did you truly believe I would never discover the truth?


Playing games with my brain
Manipulating and toying with my mind


I called a time out
I demanded a pause in this situation


Yeah, your friend snitched in 4k
Your acquaintance revealed everything in great detail


Had a man in your bed
You were intimate with another person in your own sleeping space


Cuddled up in your place
Engaged in affectionate embrace at your residence


What a shame
It is truly disgraceful


And you denied it all
You insisted on rejecting every accusation


Said it was a joke
Claimed it was a humorous act


But not to me
However, I am not convinced


No, no it's not at all
Absolutely not, that's not the truth


So goodbye and good riddance
Farewell and may we never encounter each other again


How you gonna sit and lie
How can you comfortably sit there and deceive


And act like you didn't
And pretend as if you have no knowledge of it


I lost trust
I have completely lost faith and confidence in you


Who gives a fuck what the truth is
What does it matter what the truth actually is


You probably fucked him like a slut
Likely engaged in sexual activity with him in a promiscuous manner


What the fuck I'm not stupid
I am not foolish or ignorant, what is this nonsense


And how can you deny
How can you possibly reject


I got video to prove it
I possess a recording that validates it


So just shut the fuck up
Simply cease all speech and remain silent


I'm so tired of excuses
I am incredibly weary of hearing justifications
