Recreant Lyrics

Unfaithful backstabbing coward
I’m fucking sick of all the lies and all the treachery
I was always by your side and this is how you repay me
And after all these years you fucking turned your back on me
I can’t believe I ever considered you family
I will never forget this knife you placed in my back
Recreant
Say it to my face
No more fucking games
This is where you pay
Recreant
Step the fuck back and just bleed
You’re a worthless gutless pig
Now you’ll see that I’m not just something you can fucking cast aside
My whole life I stood right by your side
You fucking hypocrite
You make it seem like it was my fault
You lied
Don’t forget I know exactly what you did
I’m fucking sick of all the lies and all the treachery
I was always by your side and this is how you repay
And after all these years you fucking turned your back on me?
I can’t believe I ever considered you family
I will never forget this knife you placed in my back
Recreant
Say it to my face
No more fucking games
This is where you play
Recreant

You are dead to me

Unfaithful backstabbing coward
I’m fucking sick of all the lies and all the treachery
I was always by your side and this is how you repay me
And after all these years you fucking turned your back on me
I can’t believe I ever considered you family
I will never forget this knife you placed in my back
Recreant
Say it to my face
No more fucking games
This is where you pay 
Recreant
Step the fuck back and just bleed
You’re a worthless gutless pig
Now you’ll see that I’m not just something you can fucking cast aside
My whole life I stood right by your side
You fucking hypocrite
You make it seem like it was my fault 
You lied
Don’t forget I know exactly what you did
I’m fucking sick of all the lies and all the treachery
I was always by your side and this is how you repay
And after all these years you fucking turned your back on me?
I can’t believe I ever considered you family
I will never forget this knife you placed in my back
Recreant
Say it to my face 
No more fucking games
This is where you play

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

LYRICS ARE SOME OF THE MOST FUCKING INTENSE LYRICS I'VE EVER HEARD. The original version is definetly the heaviest song i've ever heard. Definetly about revenge, and based on their other lyrics, it's about getting revenge on a slut. Also, I think the chorus is

Recreant Say it to my face You're a fucking cunt (not no more fucking games) this is where you pay RECREANT.
