Analysis of Karma's list
1. In every decision I make,
And every step I take,
I see it through your eyes,
Which makes me realize that
I am a better person than you, and that's a fact.
'Cause you would have twisted the story,
Taken offense, and started a fight.
2. You see the worst in people,
Point out all my flaws in public
Bring your lies to the dinning table
While I still find myself struggling to find good in your soul,
You keep breaking my heart into folds.
3. I am not being proud,
I just want to say out loud,
That karma is a bitch,
And babe, she has you on her list.
4. I am sad now,
And you are glad.
You think you know better, but you don't.
Honey, you are the 'worst' you see in me.
5. I thought I had a bad sense of judgement,
Crossing paths with you,
Realizing yours is just irrational.
6. I was wrong to assume you were good,
When you helped me at school.
Still, I know you aren't all bad,
Like the world, you are more than black and white.
