Killing Everyone Lyrics

Wasn't me that was coming to get you
I was already gone
You looked around for someone to protect you
Somebody else to lean on

You spent the night with that boy
Who promised you everything under the sun
And when you left with him
I could have killed everyone

I saw you out with him wasted as I was
What a sight for eyes so sore
Christ, I'd never thought you'd find me so helpless
I'm the one who always ignores

Jealousy and emotion
I can hide them so well I've been told
Though I was so composed
I could have killed everyone

I could have killed everyone
I could have killed everyone around me
But I'd hate to ruin anybody's fun

If I'd have been someone else
And you would have still just been yourself
I swear that's what I would have done
I would have killed everyone

I stayed away from you as long as I could
Wondering how and who you were doing now
It had to happen sometime
I walked in and saw you right where I'd left you

Taking seemingly innocent sips
Out of everyone's glass but your own
I should have warned them all
But I just felt like killing everyone

I could have killed everyone
I could have killed everyone around me
But you know I'd hate to ruin anybody's fun

If I'd have been someone else
And you would have still just been yourself
I swear that's what I would have done
I would have killed everyone

Walked the streets tried to calm my libido
Paid the cab driver way more than I owed
To take me over to your place
So I could use your doormat as a pillow

I woke up completely sober
When all your friends started coming over
They wiped their feet on me, someone peed on me
You just stood there laughing

God, I could have killed everyone
I could have killed everyone around me
But you know I'd hate to ruin anybody's fun

And if I'd have been someone else
And you would have still just been yourself
I swear that's what I would have done
I would have killed everyone
