Angel Below

Underoath · Play Your Old Stuff [2011]

You took me over the edge

And left me there to fall by myself

The word love meant nothing to you



I was taken in with your lies

And you knew I was too weak to leave

But you were wrong

You mean nothing to me now



Every time you think of me

I hope your heart dies

I have found my true love

And you now burn beneath my feet



You'll pay for everything you've done

If you could die

I'd be the one with the gun



From this day on

I'll write the songs you hate

And pray the prayers that drive you away



It's time to let the world know how

You tried to ruin my life

Up burn my thoughts of him

The virus leaves me
