lirik lagu krystal evette - the latter
(verse one)
scales over my eyes
while you took everything that’s mine
rip layers off my corneas
manipulation made me blind
like i am finally awake
i dreamed of exiting this state
i raise my hands in victory
but it seems that i’m far too late
(pre chorus 1)
looping on repeat, the way i reached defeat
all the nights bleeding, all the nights pleading
now i’m just seething at all of your seedlings
you planted in me, and i thought i was healing
now i’m sitting in the dark, sitting questioning my heart
second guessing all my art, my mind starts to fall apart
i was searching for a spark, all that’s left now is your mark
now i’m all bite and all bark, i’m done swinging in your park
(chorus)
make more wounds or patch those you made, you never took the latter
so then i made wounds of my own, connected them in patterns
the cracks that you and i made lead to every time i shattered
but after you discarded me, to you i never mattered
make more wounds or patch those you made, you never took the latter
and now i’m here blaming myself for not seeing the patterns
i could re~glue the shards, but instead let the pieces shatter
i’m breathing and discarded hope, nothing left here still matters
(verse two)
took the scales off of my eyes
but i wish that i had stayed blind
to the truth of every moment
i was comfortable in lies
the things i didn’t want to face
the pain i didn’t want to chase
memories i cannot erase
now constant anguish is my fate
(pre chorus 2)
they’re praying on my downfall, hoping that i stay small
i’m no longer his doll, won’t kneel when he says crawl
now that i can stand tall, curving all the withdrawal
as i’m building my walls, i’m ready for the last brawl
ready for the k!ll, they think i wouldn’t but i will
they don’t know that i have the sk!ll, taking crimson, watch it spill
maybe i’ll try every pill cuz i’ve been chasing all the thrills
there’s not a void that i can fill so i just put ink in the quill
(chorus)
make more wounds or patch those you made, you never took the latter
so then i made wounds of my own, connected them in patterns
the cracks that you and i made lead to every time i shattered
but after you discarded me, to you i never mattered
make more wounds or patch those you made, you never took the latter
and now i’m here blaming myself for not seeing the patterns
i could re~glue the shards, but instead let the pieces shatter
i’m breathing and discarded hope, nothing left here still matters
(bridge)
i’m breaking through the boards when i am climbing up the ladder
you used to imply scr~ps you gave me should make me feel flattered
i’m gripping onto gravity bracing for returned saturn
i’ll hang the noose off of the rings if i can’t break this pattern
you bathed my house in gasoline and i still fight the fire
you left so many ashes that you drove away all buyers
i’m cutting off the plastic sh~ll and rigging up the wires
i’ll steal your eyes cuz you stole mine, vengeance is my desire
you always held the lighter but now i’ve become the arsonist
you had me bend my sense of self to become your contortionist
the first thing i burned to the ground was my internal optimist
then tie you to the stake because ‘round here it’s burn the narcissist
(break)
you never took the latter, now i’ll take it on myself
i’m dragging you down with me into your created h~ll
dante said nine circles, but i’ll take you to the twelfth
you never took the latter so it’s time that we both fell
(drop)
make more wounds or patch those you made, you never took the latter
you never took the latter, you never took the latter
i could just try to heal myself but now it doesn’t matter
but now it doesn’t matter, now it doesn’t matter
(outro)
i tried to only burn the house, instead i burnt the town
i tried to only take you, but i took everyone down
i tried to turn the hose on, but instead they all just drowned
they said i was too vicious and they don’t want me around
that’s one of many reasons i don’t let myself feel rage
i tried to burn a chapter, but instead burned every page
it always does more damage when i attempt to engage
and i’m the one to pay, somehow you always got away
(spoken)
911, what’s your emergency?
