Story Behind The Song
Song is about fighting in a relationship - about feeling hard done by because the one who has to apologize is always you - so why can't the other person say sorry for a change - can't we just move on and do what we do best - and love each other - or else somebody is going to pay for this.

Lyrics
SOMEBODY'S GOING TO PAY FOR THIS © Kevin Glancy
The art of conversation is just another way - of saying things we should never say
Now here we are in this predicament with no way out unless someone's giving in
But I don't hear you saying sorry - it's always up to me to apologise
Now here I go again - well let me tell you
Chorus:
Somebody's goinna pay for this - somebody somewhere is goinna pay for this
Somebody's goinna pay for this somebody somewhere is goinna pay for this
Now I could be your lover or I could be your friend but if we fight like this you know it's goinna' end
And everybody knows no one ever wins and I can't be the one who's always giving in
Now I don't see the tears in your eyes yet I'm the one who has to apologise
And here I go again - well let me tell you
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
Now I know I could walk away I won't be missed you'll take me off your list and I'll never say I'm sorry
You'll never admit you are wrong - it's always up to me
Oh won't you change your point of view and do it just for me
Cos let me tell you
Repeat Chorus
Now I'm sure there's better things to do - than to argue until we're black and blue
We could both agree to disagree and move on to where we ought to be
So please listen
I don't want to hear anymore about this I could live without your loaded gun
I just want to feel your love so let me tell you
Repeat chorus
