Romanticide

Tal Bachman

Another grand surprise
Your rapier wit cut me down to size
You love to pass your time
Looking for ways to play the thorn in my side
Its dj vu one more time

Whoever said to take it on the chin
Whoever said that good guys always win
Has never seen the sorry state Im in
A victim of romanticide again

My little atom bomb
This is the last time youll do me wrong
So listen when I speak
I cant go on forever turning my cheek
Your whipping boys about to speak

Chorus

Ive paid my bills and cleaned out my closet
Slammed the front door tight
I cant believe that I ever thought
This all would work out right

Chorus

Whoever said to get down on your knees
Give your ground or try your best to please
Has never seen my lonely misery
A victim of romanticide thats me
