[male
vocals]
[Intro] Mmm,
yeah
Hard
to
believe
it
all
fell
through
[Verse 1] I
put
my
heart
on
the
line,
paid
every
price
Thought
our
future
was
set,
we
didn't
think
twice
But
your
family
was
there,
always
in
the
frame
Watching
my
every
move,
calling
out
my
name
They
were
looking
for
flaws,
looking
for
a
fight
Turning
our
home
into
a
shadow
of
night
I
gave
everything
I
had
just
to
make
it
real
But
they
poisoned
the
love,
tell
me
how
you
feel?
[Chorus] Matilda,
I
paid
the
cost
just
to
be
your
man
But
your
people
had
a
different,
colder
plan
Now
I’
m
standing
in
the
ruins
of
the
life
I
built
Left
with
nothing
but
these
insults
and
the
guilt
Matilda,
think
twice,
yeah,
look
at
what
you
lose
Was
it
worth
the
chaos,
was
it
worth
the
bruise?
[Verse 2] I
paid
the
dowry,
yeah,
I
cleared
the
floor
But
they
always
wanted
more,
always
kept
score
Insulting
my
character,
tearing
down
my
name
And
you
just
sat
back,
caught
up
in
their
game
Is
this
what
marriage
means?
Is
this
the
code?
Walking
down
this
lonely,
bitter
road
I’
m
tired
of
the
noise,
I’
m
tired
of
the
lies
I
see
the
truth
reflecting
back
in
your
eyes
[Chorus] Matilda,
I
paid
the
cost
just
to
be
your
man
But
your
people
had
a
different,
colder
plan
Now
I’
m
standing
in
the
ruins
of
the
life
I
built
Left
with
nothing
but
these
insults
and
the
guilt
Matilda,
think
twice,
yeah,
look
at
what
you
lose
Was
it
worth
the
chaos,
was
it
worth
the
bruise?
[Bridge] Oh,
I
never
thought
I’
d
be
the
one
to
walk
away
But
silence
is
heavy
at
the
end
of
the
day
I
needed
a
partner,
not
a
family
feud
I
needed
your
loyalty,
but
you
were
so
crude
Yeah,
baby,
I’
m
free
now
[Verse 3] So
keep
the
memories,
keep
the
wasted
time
I’
m
washing
my
hands
of
this
mountain
I
climbed
Matilda,
you’
re
free,
go
live
your
way
I’
m
finding
my
peace,
I’
m
finding
my
day
I
paid
for
the
insults,
what
a
heavy
loss
But
I’
m
finally
realizing
the
worth
of
the
cost
[Chorus] Matilda,
I
paid
the
cost
just
to
be
your
man
But
your
people
had
a
different,
colder
plan
Now
I’
m
standing
in
the
ruins
of
the
life
I
built
Left
with
nothing
but
these
insults
and
the
guilt
Matilda,
think
twice,
yeah,
look
at
what
you
lose
Was
it
worth
the
chaos,
was
it
worth
the
bruise?
[Outro] Yeah,
you’
re
free
now,
Matilda
Just
a
lesson
learned
in
the
dark
I’
m
walking
away,
oh,
I’
m
walking
away
Need
to
find
my
heart
again,
mmm.
