Revenge
Revenge is one thing that we human beings thrive on,
one of the few subject areas that we do so well on.
We live for the saying one good turn deserves another
and do unto others as you'd have them do unto you.
We figure,
if someone hurts you, it's only fair
that you hurt them back and twice as hard too.
They make you sad,
forgetting the fact misery
loves company,
we figure; why go down alone
when you're so eager to come with me?
What kind of frenemy would I be,
if I didn't make your dreams come true?
make you see what it's like,
to go through what I went through.
Revenge is sweet,
we human beings feel a joy getting even,
a sense of accomplishment
they're no longer better than us,
if it comes with a punishment
we're willing to be punished,
why? Well we've convinced ourselves-
That it's absolutely worth it.
