There he lies all curled up in a pool of blood
I look down at what is left of jealous love
You should have seen this coming when you chose him over me
Now I am the one to blame, but I, I will plead that I'm insane

'Cause there's a riot in my head
No way of ever coming back
It was a momentary lapse
There was a riot in my head
And I might as well be dead
I might as well be left for good and dead

I look back at all those burning summer nights
When you said you'd love me 'til the end of time
Even though I pulled the trigger, you're the one who just blew out his brains
You're the one to blame, I, I'll just plead that I'm insane

'Cause there's a riot in my head
No way of ever coming back
It was a momentary lapse
Now there's a riot in my head
And I might as well be dead
I might as well be dead

No matter what you need
Don't shed a tear for me
'Cause this was worth it

No matter what you need
I got revenge, my dear
So this was worth it

There's a riot in my head
No way of ever coming back
It was a momentary lapse
Now there's a riot in my head
No way of ever coming back
It was a momentary lapse
Now there's a riot in my head
