lyrics

I been drinking that moonshine
I been sucking it down
I been wearing this halo
Over my thorny crown

I been seeking forgiveness
I been holding my breath
I been keeping my legs crossed
underneath my dress

How do you like me now?

I think you heard the story
I think you know it all too well, well
Know where the bodies buried
You know the secrets they don't tell, tell
But remember no matter what you do
All their lies will find their way home to you
How you like me now?

I been holding this gun close
I been keeping it safe
I've been practicing long shots
Aimed right at your face
I lost my faith in honor
I've given up myself
I traded in your judgments
For something else

How you like me now?

I think you heard the story
I think you know it all too well, well
Know where the bodies buried
You know the secrets they don't tell, tell
But remember no matter what you do
All their lies will find their way home to you
How you like me now?
