Verse 1 (low, simmering, bluesy)
You tell me I’m wrong again
Same damn lie with a different spin
Vinyl crackin’, needle worn
Playin’ fights we’ve played before
Round and round in barroom smoke
Truth gets lost in every choke
Boot heels draggin’ ‘cross the floor
I ain’t dancin’ anymore
⸻
Pre-Chorus (build, tension)
One of us has gotta drop
One of us has gotta stop
One of us will wear the sin tonight
Call it fate or call it killin’
One of us becomes the villain
Strike the match and let it light
⸻
Chorus (full power, distorted guitars)
I said there’d be a day
Somehow, some way
That you would hate me
Call me psychic
Call me a seer
Call me your damn oracle, baby
I don’t wanna feel this way
But I warned you ‘bout this day
Now there’s no slowin’ down at all
The day I became Mrs. Know-It-All
⸻
Verse 2 (gritty groove, blues rock feel)
Every word’s a loaded gun
You fire first, I don’t outrun
Trigger fingers, whiskey tongues
Singin’ songs we’ve already sung
You don’t listen, I don’t bend
We just bleed and call it “mend”
Love’s a ghost in neon light
Dyin’ slow in every fight
⸻
Pre-Chorus (bigger, dirtier)
Push it past the warning line
Cross the heart that once was mine
Turnin’ love into a crime again
No more saints in this here war
Just two sinners keepin’ score
And I hear that “I told you” creepin’ in
⸻
Chorus (bigger, layered vocals)
I said there’d be a day
Somehow, some way
That you would hate me
Call me psychic
Call me a seer
Call me your damn oracle, baby
I don’t wanna feel this way
But I warned you ‘bout this day
Now there’s no slowin’ down at all
The day I became Mrs. Know-It-All
⸻
Bridge (strip down → explosive)
(half-time, bluesy, almost spoken)
I didn’t wanna be right…
I just wanted you to fight… for me
(build—drums creeping in)
But you can’t see what you’ve done
When you’re always holdin’ the gun
(SCREAM / BELT)
NOW THE TRUTH’S DEAD AND GONE
⸻
Breakdown (heavy, chugging, almost spoken/snarl)
Yeah—
Crown me queen of the fallout
Write it down in your blame
You built this throne outta breakdowns
Now I’m wearin’ the name
⸻
Final Chorus (highest intensity)
I said there’d be a day
Yeah I felt it in my veins
That you would hate me
Now you say it
Loud and clear
Like it don’t even break me
I don’t wanna feel this way
But we built it brick by break
And now there’s no savin’ us at all
The day I became Mrs. Know-It-All
⸻
Outro (dirty, blues fade)
Same damn song… different pain
Different storm… same damn rain
You can curse me, blame it all
On Mrs. Know-It-All
