about

Payback The Thief's official debut single, The Way You Don't, is a solid representation of the sultry, gypsy soul that lives and breathes throughout the band's repertoire.

We're proud to present this song as one of the band's first songs to truly come together as a result of the highly synergistic creative energies between Mike (songwriter) and Jeni.

lyrics

The Way You Don't (Over You)

You hate the way I do things
I hate the way you don't
Keep trying to hurt me
I know that you won't
Play all your games
It all stays the same
You sit and you wonder
Who is to blame

I'm over you
So get over me
And go

I've burned all these bridges
I've blackened the ground
Searched through the ashes
The one thing that I've found
I was the fire
You were the fuel
You played the part
I played the fool

I'm over you
So get over me
And go

Now that it's over
I don't think I care
I've tried digging deeper
There's just nothing there
Try to fly
You'll sink like a stone
And you'll sit there empty
Bitter and alone

Get over me
Because I'm over you
Now go
