I saw it in the news
you told me they were wrong
and I stood up for you
cause I believed you were the one

you had all the chances in the world
to let me know the truth
what the hell's wrong with you?

[Bridge]
are you even listening when I talk to you
do you even care what I'm going through
your eyes stare and they're staring right through me
you're right there but its like you never knew me

[Chorus]
do you even know how much it hurt
that you gave up on me to be with her
revenge is sweeter than you ever were

I'm so mad at you right now
and I can't even find the words
and you're on the way down
I can't wait to see you burn
you try to make me hate that girl
when I should be hating you
what the hell's wrong with you

[Bridge]

[Chorus]

revenge is sweeter than you ever were

nothing can save you now that it's over
I guess that you'll find out when you're no one
don't say you're sorry now 'cause I just don't care

nothing can save you now, nothing
nothing can save you now, nothing

[Bridge]

[Chorus]

revenge is sweeter than you ever were

    My Opinion:I think this song is like perfect for like when when someone liked you and you didn't like them.and then they finally get over it and then they go out with someone else and you start to like them. Haha that's what I thought..I know that's not what it means but..that's what situation I'm in so that's what it mean to me! Haha

    General Comment:Everyone's right about this song and I agree.
    It definitely sounds like an ex-boyfriend cheating.
    I love the chorus. It's a very intense, dramatic and
    catchy song. I'm obsessed with it. I keep playing
    it over & over. The Veronicas have outdone them-
    selves this time around.

    General Comment:oh my god..
    this song relates to me in every way.

    "do you even know how much that hurt.
    that you gave up on me to be with her."

    the veronicas are too good.

    General Comment:you messed a part up.
    after
    "Nothing can save you now
    Nothing, nothing, can save you now
    Nothing"

    you put "Do you even know how much it hurt
    That you gave up on me to be with her?
    Revenge is sweeter than you ever were"

    when you shouldn't have.
    azlyrics.com/v/…

    if you read those lyrics their correct...and next time when you wanna post lyrics up..do what i do and copy and paste them or listen to the song and make sure you put the words in carefully.

    things like this stuff really bugs me a lot.
