I knew it... I should have kept quiet! Should've kept my thoughts just thoughts Not even raised the matter at all! But there I was... Hyping myself up like a slaughter cow Telling myself I deserved vindication But now here I am.. Back to where I should have anticipated to end up... Back to the slaughter house... But hey, all these are just words now Same as the ones that got me here But did I tell you I knew? I knew I should have shut up! I. knew. it.

But hey, all these are just words now Same as the ones that got me here But did I tell you I knew? I knew I should have shut up! I. knew. it.
