Vindicated

I thought about bullets,
I thought about knives,
But they say it's only right
To go on with our lives

To come out vindicated
Like a saint from this mess,
But I wanna get you back
Now that much I can confess

I trusted your promise,
I fell for your charm,
I went to the edge,
I was led by the arm

But even a fool should know better...
Know better than that
Well now I'm gonna tell you
Just where it's at

I want you defeated
And stripped to the bone,
I want you shaken and humbled
Like a dog out alone

I got a vision of you
Drownin in your own tears,
Tormented by sadness
And tortured by fear
