  • Walk the line waste my songs
    You had style you had charm
    You were my lover
    You were my only friend in this fucking world
    All the light that would shine
    Shines for me in your eyes my little liar
    There wasn't one damn thing I wouldn't do for you
    You say you know about the hell you put me through
    Hold my hand watch my band
    I thought that you could understand
    But you didn't know me
    You only knew what I could do for you
    You say you know about the hell you put me though
    But do you know what I'm about to do to you?
    Walk the line waste my songs
    You had style you had charm
    You were my lover
    You were my only friend in this fucking world
    Oh your lies damn your eyes
    You know I take back every promise that i ever made to you
    Do you know the nightmare you've gone and put me though
    And do you know what I'm about to do to you?
    You have no idea what I'm about to do to you
    Do to you Publisher: Audiam, Inc., HYVETOWN MUSIC INC
