Story behind the song
I wanted to write a particularly over-the-top gothic style song, with organs and thunderclaps but with my toungue firmly embedded in my cheek.
Once the music was written, the narrative came into my mind based on a conversation I had with someone I used to know...
Lyrics
Do you believe that I still want you?
You're so arrogant to think
That after everything you did
I'd just fall into your arms?
I remember all the things you said;
the lies you told
to lead me on.
Let me finally open up
and tell you how I really feel..
I curse the day I found you.
I hoped I'd never see your face again.
I can't imagine what I ever saw in you
to make me feel that way...
Hell hath no fury, like a woman scorned..
I admit that once I loved you
would have given you exactly
what you wanted
just
to keep you by my side.
Now I, at last, can see the truth,
I can see what you
really are...
Things can never be the same,
I hope you realise...
I curse the day I found you.
I hoped I'd never see your face again.
I can't imagine what I ever saw in you
to make me feel that way...
Hell hath no fury, like a woman scorned..
Bridge (No lyrics)
Just turn around and
walk away from me
The feelings I once had for you
are gone and nothing's left
of what I felt before.
Don't look surprised at how you
made me feel.
You must have known how much I
longed for you.
I guess I kept my secret
better than I thought...
I curse the day I found you.
I hoped I'd never see your face again.
I can't imagine what I ever saw in you
to make me feel that way...
Hell hath no fury, like a woman scorned..
