The Reckoning
[Verse 1] Cross my heart, broke your promise, told me lies Why did you Watch me suffer, make me feel like I deserved to Everybody takes, everybody breaks somebody's heart leaving someone alone But this felt more like you ripping flesh from bone You made a mess out of me Where do I begin? You'll for your sins
[Chorus] Like a reckoning You never saw it coming I'm the reaper outside your door You took everything made me feel less than nothing I'm getting what I came for Like the sound of falling stars crashing in the dark I said a prayer and buried your name And up through the ashes I rose like wildfire
[Hook] The reckoning
[Verse 2] I gave you more than my heart could hope for You misused it Scraped up every piece that fell to the floor When you tore through it Laying me to ruin You knew what you were doing Leaving me to skin and bone But trusting you was no one's fault but my own You get what you give So take your last breath 'fore I lay you to rest
[Chorus] Like a reckoning You never saw it coming I'm the reaper outside your door You took everything made me feel less than nothing I'm getting what I came for Like the sound of falling stars crashing in the dark I said a prayer and buried your name And up through the ashes I rose like wildfire
[Bridge] I should have known better than that I should have known all along I should have known better than that I should have known But now I'm moving on
[Chorus] Like a reckoning You never saw it coming I'm the reaper outside your door You took everything made me feel less than nothing I'm getting what I came for Like the sound of falling stars crashing in the dark I said a prayer and buried your name And up through the ashes I rose like wildfire
[Outro] The reckoning You never saw it coming You never saw me coming The reckoning I'm the reaper outside your door I am the reckoning For every wrong you did to me I am the reckoning
