Lyrics Checking Out - She Wants Revenge

Checking Out

She’s like a ghost to me
Drifting slowly
Never wanting to stay
Anticipation growing
Blacked out with X’s for eyes
They won’t lead you to answers
Abandoned one too many times
So she will not be taking chances
And still she rue the day
She took him in her desperate way
The stories of her past betrayals
The list of names in hush-toned tales
She should have offered up his name
To place beside the ones she’s blamed
Because he’ll live there anyway
No matter how this hand is played
You must be checking out on someone’s love
'Cause you never wanna come back down
There’s nothing wrong with your lipstick
But there’s nowhere to hide tonight
She’s like the devil to me
Though she claims she found Jesus
Her religion is killing me
License to do as she pleases
Never mind consequence
That’s a folly of weakness
It is written, she says
And she really believes this
We don’t see eye to eye
But we’ll level the playing field tonight
With no more hope and no more hype
And no more murder, no more lies
You must be checking out on someone’s love
'Cause you never wanna come back down
It’s just another diversion
But there’s nowhere to hide tonight
You must be checking out on someone’s love
'Cause you never wanna come back down
I know you want a reaction
But there’s nowhere to hide tonight
You must be checking out on someone’s love
Because you never wanna come back down
You must be checking out on someone’s love
Because you never wanna come back down
You must be checking out on someone’s love
'Cause you never wanna come back down
And we’ll just take it for granted
But there’s nowhere to hide tonight
You must be checking out on someone’s love
'Cause you never wanna come back down
With all the evidence planted
There’s nowhere to hide tonight
