Your hands wrapped around my throat
Now I can't seem to breathe.
Cover my body with your coat
And then you turn to leave.

I didn't think you were unhappy
While we were young, in love.
But yesterday you turned away
And now my blood runs cold.

I didn't want to challenge you.
I didn't fear my death.
Now lying here, my life grows dim
But I don't miss it much.

You get home and tell them all
You don't know where I've gone.
They go out to look for me
But do they remember my face?

It's been so long since I was there
Maybe they've forgotten how I look.
Or maybe not, as someone pulls back your coat
And they see my face, pale and cold.

They point fingers, they place their blame.
I know the truth, I know it was you.
Welcome to my revenge.
