Call It Karma

lyrics

Princess
You're the angel on the
Christmas tree in the middle of summer
It's the wrong time
And you're a long way from home
At 17 you was a stone-cold stunner
At 23 you couldn't find anyone
And now you're pissed off
All alone

No
Way
Out

Let's call it karma baby, yeah
Let's call it karma baby, yeah
Let's call it what it really is
You'll pay the price
Until the score is even
Let's call it karma baby

Dream team
Got swept in the first round
Lost the beat
And you still haven't found it

No
Way
Out

Let's call it karma baby, yeah
Let's call it karma baby, yeah
Let's call it what it really is
You'll pay the price
Until the score is even
Let's call it karma baby

As much as I'd like to
I cannot forget you
I severed all ties
But the memories still get through
It's weighed on my mind since the scene of the crime
Time heals all wounds that it doesn't destroy
It's holding me back
And it's holding me under
Male seeking air and a lost sense of wonder
If I could describe it
The best word is "numb"
Deaf, dumb, and blind to the beat of the drum
But it's pounding
It's pounding
It's pounding on me
Please don't let up
I've been lying asleep
And the world has been passing me by
I know it's too late to recover lost time
But the future's in front of me
I'm setting out to be
Everything I was for you
And better
For better or worse
You're my blessing and curse
In this verse of my life
I emerge out the back of the hearse

I repressed it all away
Now nothing means anything
I'm covered in scars
Forgot who you are
Cuz somehow that makes things much better
Now I found the words to say
Things worked out better this way
You'd make things so hard
But now that you're gone
I'm putting the pieces together again

So sick and tired for
So long can't take no more
So sick and tired for
So long can't take no more
So sick and tired so
End this endless war

Let's call it karma baby, yeah
(Let's call it karma)
Let's call it karma baby, yeah
(Let's call it karma)
Let's call it what it really is
You'll pay the price until the score is even (So sick and tired for so long can't take no More)
Let's call it karma baby
