If You Don't See

[another interesting format for the intro, when the words in parthesis appear, it means they're meant to be sung AT THE SAME TIME as the line they're next to. the parts in bold should be SCREAMING or SPEAK RHYTHM. the parenthesis are part of a popular song first penned by Leonard Cohen. got it?]

(intro) Oh, you know know you've been fooled
When she can say what she wants (She tied you to a kitchen chair)
And you'll stand by and take it (She broke your throne)
The same fucking shit (She cut your hair)
You said you didn't want (And from your lips she drew)
It's too late now (A hallelujah)
You crossed the line (hallelujah, hallelujah)
And you can't go back (hallelujah, hallelujah)

(v1) Now she's got you wrapped around her finger
You'll do anything she wants
Including leave us behind
Well fine, I understand
We'll pick up the pieces
You broke on the way out

(chorus) It's a crying shame
All you potential, wasted
To make you the graceless fool
Just to make her love you
And all she does is use you
A cover for her own mistake
If you don't see now, you never will

(v2) Now you say we didn't listen to her
And turn it all around
To make us look like villains
Well fine, I understand
Don't expect us to wait
For you to comprehend

(bridge) You lied to us and to yourself
Oh, you know you've been fooled
When she can say what she wants
And you'll agree to blame anyone but her
You're both alone, you're both alone

(chorus) It's a crying shame
All you potential, wasted
To make you the graceless fool
Just to make her love you
And all she does is use you
A cover for her own mistake
If you don't see now, you never will

(outro) Lies, rumors
Your knives in our backs
I hope you're happy now
You're so pathetic
She'll say what she wants
If you don't see now, you never will
