Payback Songtext
von Straight Line Arrival

Payback for the towns that didn′t burn yet
My sweetest revenge is my biggest regret
I'm deeper in love and I′m deeper in debt
I'll drown right here with just my ankles wet
I rock and sway to a changing wind
I go where I may but I never begin
In time I'm always just a measure late
The world moves on without me


It doesn′t burn as it should
Twice as hot and twice as bright
Hopes and dreams for the kindling
Weren′t enough to keep ourselves warm for a night

Lay back they say sit and wait your turn yeah
We are all just ashes that just haven't met an urn yet
I′m falling apart foiled at the shins
Just where do I start, where could I begin
Destined to lose, but convinced we'll win
The odds justify the means, do they make up for our sins
Try to define myself with more than just what I hate
As the world moves on without me
