Lyrics

Start

Verse 1

Satellite flickers on my wall

Signals drifting through the hall

Promises you failed to recall

Switch the channel, waiting for your call

Pre-Chorus

Empty circuits hum your name

Memories running through my brain

Is it love or just a game?

I’m left alone beneath the rain

Chorus

Don’t you want my retribution?

After all that we've been through

Standing right in dissolution

I can’t keep waiting here for you

Post-Chorus

Oh oh oh

Don’t you want it?

Oh oh oh

Retribution

Verse 2

All your words programmed in my mind

Cold precision you left behind

You keep searching for escape lines

But I see patterns every time

Pre-Chorus

Blinking screens and shadowed rooms

You said the future was coming soon

But all I need’s an honest tune

Would you give it back or leave so soon?

Chorus

Don’t you want my retribution?

After all that we've been through

Standing right in dissolution

I can’t keep waiting here for you

Post-Chorus

Oh oh oh

Don’t you want it?

Oh oh oh

Retribution[Bridge]

I found that chick at a discount store

Plastic bags and zippers on the floor

Eyes that never ask for more

Sliding numbers, keeping score

Verse 3

I said hey, want some reproduction?

She laughed and turned her head away

Invitation lost in the function

Does she care or just wants to play?

Pre-Chorus

Dreams distort in cold fluorescent

All these questions, words unsaid

Do we spark or just pretend?

Fragile moments hanging by a thread

Chorus

Don’t you want my retribution?

After all that we've been through

Standing right in dissolution

I can’t keep waiting here for you

Post-Chorus

Oh oh oh

Don’t you want it?

Oh oh oh

Retribution

End
