An Eye for an Eye

I will Forgive
But won't forget
If you're gonna come
You'd best come correct
The only law
Is who stacks the deck
Who holds the cards and
Whose foot's on your neck
Put me on top
And give me control
I want direct
Access to your soul
What once was green
Is tired and old
And what I am owed
Then shall soon be made whole

An eye for an eye are the words we live by
If you've been displaced Well my love so have I
You say you've changed but my love so have I
You ask me to understand
Give me one reason why

I may be young
But I'm not naive
I know which lies
Are the ones to believe
I know whose minds
I can deceive
And I know who is
My utility

An eye for an eye are the words we live by
If you've been displaced Well my love so have I
You say you've changed but my love so have I
You ask me to understand
Give me one reason why

We were both young and in love once,
Can you tell me what happened to that?
The panthers inside of us need to be fed
So we say things there's no taking back

An eye for an eye are the words we live by
If you've been displaced Well my love so have I
You say you've changed but my love so have I
You ask me to understand
Give me one reason why
