My 2nd single! This is a bit of a dark one: it's about a recurring dream I used to have after I was attacked in my flat and left for dead... basically a revenge dream. Good clean fun!

lyrics

This knife weighs heavy on my mind,
No other purpose I can find,
Revenge is all that I can think of.
Was long ago, I still can't sleep,
Psychologically the wound is deep,
Revenge is all that I can think of.

Just give me one good reason why
I shouldn't leave you here to die?
Feelings this strong I can't smother,
I can't think of any other
Way to lay this hate to rest.

As I'm lying in my bed
Thoughts of hate still fill my head,
Revenge is all that I can think of.
This thing will never be over
Until you are six foot under,
Revenge is all that I can think of.

Just give me one good reason why
I shouldn't leave you here to die?
Feelings this strong I can't smother,
I can't think of any other
Way to lay this hate to rest.

I lie awake at night and think,
It's driving me to the brink,
Revenge is all that I can think of.
And if you're listening you'll know
There's no way I can let this go,
Revenge is all that I can think of.

Just give me one good reason why
I shouldn't leave you here to die?
Feelings this strong I can't smother,
I can't think of any other
Way to lay this hate to rest.

I can't think of anything else other than revenge.

Just give me one good reason why
I shouldn't leave you here to die?
Feelings this strong I can't smother,
I can't think of any other
Way to lay this hate to rest.
