Tal Bachman: "Romanticide" Lyrics

Another grand surprise

Your rapier wit cut me down to size

You love to pass your time

Looking for ways to play the thorn in my side

Its déjà vu one more time



Whoever said to take it on the chin

Whoever said that good guys always win

Has never seen the sorry state Im in

A victim of romanticide again



My little atom bomb

This is the last time youll do me wrong

So listen when I speak

I cant go on forever turning my cheek

Your whipping boys about to speak



Chorus



Ive paid my bills and cleaned out my closet

Slammed the front door tight

I cant believe that I ever thought

This all would work out right



Chorus



Whoever said to get down on your knees

Give your ground or try your best to please

Has never seen my lonely misery

A victim of romanticide thats me
