Verse 1:
We were once inseparable, now we're just a memory
Your smile's etched in my mind, but it's no longer a part of me
You said I wasn't enough, that I was holding you back
But now I'm left with nothing, but a shattered heart and a cracked back
Chorus:
Before you do me wrong, be sure you'll never need me again
I'll be the one you call, when your world comes crashing down in pain
Before you do me wrong, be sure you'll never need me again
I'll be the ghost that haunts, your every waking moment, your every sin
Verse 2:
I thought our love was strong, but I guess I was wrong
You moved on to greener pastures, left me to sing this sorrowful song
I'm left to pick up the pieces, of a heart that's lost its way
Wondering where I went wrong, night and day
Chorus:
Before you do me wrong, be sure you'll never need me again
I'll be the one you call, when your world comes crashing down in pain
Before you do me wrong, be sure you'll never need me again
I'll be the ghost that haunts, your every waking moment, your every sin
Bridge:
I'll rise from the ashes, like a phoenix born to fly
But you'll be the one who's left, to wonder why
You ever let me go, why you ever said goodbye
Now you'll be the one, who's left to cry
Outro:
So go ahead, do me wrong, but know this, I'll be waiting
In the shadows, where the darkness is creating
A monster, a beast, a heart that's turned to stone
And when you need me, I'll be the one, who's gone.
This song ends with a dark tone, implying that the speaker will transform into a dark and vengeful person, waiting for the moment when the other person needs them again, but it will be too late.
