high & dry

Lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] 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 no fun if you won't play fair [Post-Chorus] Oh me Oh my I'm not gonna let this one by Oh me Oh my Karma's got you high and dry [Verse 2] 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 will be your last So unaware and ignorant I swear you've choosed to ignore The subtle hints and warnings That you feel aren't called for [Chorus] 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 no fun if you won't play fair [Post-Chorus] Oh me Oh my I'm not gonna let this one by Oh me Oh my Karma's got you high and dry [Verse 3] 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 [Chorus] 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 no fun if you won't play fair [Outro] Oh, oh
