Amanda Gramm - i should've burned the house down

You really had me thinking it was love
Then you went and really messed me up
But I couldn't be mad
'Cause I'd make you feel bad
For the damage you've done
And you had the nerve to say that you're going through the same
Bet it was so hard for you to walk away
Then somehow you got me to tell you that I'm sorry
And I can't stop thinking how
I should've burned the house down
Knowing what I know now
Watched it all go up in flames while I cursed your name
Something real to call me crazy about
It would've been so easy
You had the lighter and the gasoline
You always used to twist my reality
Now I hear you're going 'round like I wouldn't find out
That you're saying shit about me even I didn't know
And now I kinda wish I left things a little different
'Cause I can't stop thinking how
I should've burned the house down
Knowing what I know now
Watched it all go up in flames while I cursed your name
Something real to call me crazy about
Just say I didn't mean it
Maybe then you'd know the feeling
Of when you came and lit a spark just to leave me in the dark
Yeah, I'm looking at the high road now
I should've burned the house
Thought I should be the bigger person
But I'm looking back, and you don't deserve it
Call it a crime of passion
You started a chain reaction
For once you'd give me some satisfaction
If I burned the house down
Knowing what I know now
Watched it all go up in flames while I cursed your name
Something real to call me crazy about
Just say I didn't mean it
Maybe then you'd know the feeling
Of when you came and lit a spark just to leave me in the dark
Yeah, I'm looking at the high road now
I should've burned the house down
