Lali (demo songs)

Your ploy for power
I wasn't the only one
But my heart was devoured.
Over and over
Couldn't run for cover.
Echoes of your uneven angles
Made me into your
twisted Angel.
Pre-Chorus:
Calculated every move
So reluctant to speak the truth
Chorus:
But I could only take it for so long
Whispers of truths throughout the storms
Recovered and moved on
Without you.
(WIthout you)
Tried your hardest to mess with me everytime.
Almost killed me with your cruel words,
But these wounds met their deadline.
Verse:
Talking to an echo,
Time I gotta let go.
I tried to say goodbye to the anger,
Looking for a solid anchor
To hold on to me
Will you please just let me be?
Pre-Chorus:
Calculated every crime
So disgusted by your reasons why
Chorus:
But I could only take it for so long
Whispers of truths throughout the storms
Recovered and moved on
Without you.
(WIthout you)
Tried your hardest to mess with me everytime.
Almost killed me with your cruel words,
But these wounds met their deadline.
Bridge:
Honey, I'm not worried anymore
Tell me,
Is she what you were searching for?
I explored the light
Did what was right for me
Finally
I took it for so long
Screams of you and I
Recovered and moved on
Without you.
(WIthout you)
Tried your hardest to mess with my head
Almost killed me
You wanted to leave me for dead.
But these wounds,
And all these scars
met their deadline.
Now you'll never be
Mine.

[Intro]
[Verse]
It's hard looking back with clarity.
Pick myself up, move on with dignity.
No more chaos, no more lies.
Just sitting here alone,
but
No more goodbyes.
Pre-Chorus:
Nail in the coffin,
No more bleeding from me.
Chorus:
I'm still trying to learn from us.
Two a.m.
Tears turning to dust.
Those tears were the wettest you ever made me.
Sorry, baby, God protected me.
Tell your tales,
Whatcha got to lose.
Thank you so damn much
for becoming my biggest Muse.
Verse:
Fxxx you for all the times I still tried to stand by your side.
Opened my eyes.
Call you what you are.
NARCISSIST.
Pre-Chorus:
Nail in the coffin,
No more bleeding from me.
Chorus:
Im still trying to learn from us.
Two a.m.
Tears turning to dust.
Those tears were the wettest you made me.
Sorry baby, God protected me.
Tell your tales,
Whatcha got to lose.
Thank you so damn much
for becoming my biggest Muse.
Bridge:
Keep your mouth shut,
for the first time
it's the last time,
I reach out to You.
Did what I had to do.
Played the nice girl role.
Got under your skin.
But you're the crazy one,
if you thought you'd WIN.
Chorus:
Those tears were the wettest you made me.
Sorry, baby, God protected me.
Tell your tales,
Whatcha got to lose.
Thank you so damn much
for becoming my biggest Muse.
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye.
See ya on the other side.
I hope you repent your sins.
Baby, you didn't win.

[Intro]
[Verse]
Mistakes.
Regrets.
You made.
your bed.
Liar,
I'm tired.
Of You. (of you)
Pre-Chorus:
You said too many times,
You had an alibi
I'm. still. waiting.
Chorus:
Oh!
Take a sip of you,
like a glass of water.
Spit you out,
tasted like you're poison,
Tainted.
Like our love.
Drown me,
I can't save us.
Verse:
Brutal,
Stories.
You told.
Made up in your head.
Scorned love,
I'm done.
Moving on from you....
Pre-Chorus:
Easier said than done,
I know I was the one,
You'll, remember. someday.
Chorus:
Oh!
Take a sip of you,
like a glass of water.
Spit you out,
tasted like you're poison,
Tainted.
Like our love.
Drown me,
I can't save us.
Bridge:
The skies opening up,
Drowning me down the river, now.
Now I feel, I feel so clean. (clean)
We weren't meant to be,
I'll think of you,
Every time I breathe.
Even if it kills me.
Drown me, Drown me....
Chorus:
Oh!
Take a sip of you,
like a glass of water.
Spit you out,
tasted like you're poison,
Tainted.
Like our love.
Drown me,
I can't save us.
I wish you saved us.
I can't save us now.
Tainted like our love.
Our love
Tainted
like our love.

[Intro]
[verse]
When you look up at that full moon,
I'll be gazing upon it, too.
Said I was a dreamer,
But I was a real one, wasn't I?
You wanted someone strong,
Not someone you can drag along.
[chorus]
But when you look up at that full moon,
I know it's me you're thinking 'bout.
[verse]
Pop another chill pill,
Try not to sleep, I don't need rest but I give in.
What I need is an explanation,
I think I've been more than patient.
First kiss in Moonlight,
Dark hair, dark eyes.
Kills me when she's holding you,
But once a month I still have you.
[chorus]
When you look up at that full moon,
Blurry lines, cannot lie.
I know it's me you're thinking 'bout.
[verse]
Like the ending of my favorite novel,
No, they can never ever be together.
I romanticize the burning fires,
Fantasize the desperate desires.
But then again, the embers die,
Over and over and over....
[chorus]
But when you look up at the full moon,
Can't pretend, we will win.
I know it's me you're thinking 'bout.

[Intro]
[Verse]
I know you're hearing my stories,
hearing my words.
Love walked away
Never wanted to stay.
No.
Never could make him.
stay.
But you,
You have a chance
to walk up to me now.
Take over me.
Now.
Chorus:
I showed up for you,
Hoping you would do,
what. I. dreamed that you would do.
Just a few little words outta your mouth.
Hooked on me and you.
I just hoped you'd
give it a chance.
Despite the circumstance.
Verse:
After I escaped what was a nightmare.
Ran away,
wrote my songs,
never knew you'd play along.
Turns out.
you were right there
all along.
Chorus:
I showed up for you,
Hoping you would do,
what. I. dreamed that you would do.
Just a few little words outta your mouth.
Hooked on me and you.
I just hoped you'd
give it a chance.
Despite the circumstance.
Bridge:
I say it all the time,
You saw my light.
(You saw my light)
You say it all the time,
Fate,
and time.
and you.
and I.
Meant.
to.
be.
But you were far away from me.
But you wanted me for me.
Gave it a chance.
Long live, this. romance.
Chorus:
I showed up for you,
Hoping you would do,
what. I. dreamed that you would do.
Just a few little words outta your mouth.
Hooked on me and you.
I just hoped you'd
give it a chance.
You gave it a chance.
Gave me a chance.
Now look at this romance.
Ooh.
you.
Look at you.
Look at me.
We gave it a chance.
Despite the circumstance.

Intro]
[Verse]
Don't say anything nice to me,
It'll go to my head, you see.
I hope to feel, I hope to feel,
A little less pain.
Sitting in the silence,
I pretend you died.
Not hearing you call out,
Call out for me.
Now it's my turn,
To sit and watch your whole world burn.
Chorus:
Baby, it's a cold night
But not as cold as you.
Darling, it was a long drive,
But I did what I had to do.
Oh, I'm not making sense, you see,
Nothings very clear.
Took my time and diligence,
But in the end, I'll let go of you,
my dear.
Verse:
My silent prayers
keep telling me,
Not to believe in anything.
Now I feel, now I feel
A little less pain.
Sitting alone,
It's quiet now
And I can breathe.
Now it's your turn
To sit and watch my world move on.
Chorus:
Baby, it's a cold night
But not as cold as you.
Darling, it was a long drive,
But I did what I had to do.
Oh, I'm not making sense, you see,
Nothings very clear.
Took my time and diligence,
But in the end, I'll let go of you,
my dear.
Bridge:
Watched me cry,
Didn't think twice,
You always said,
You would do it.
And not test you,
Guess I tested you.
And I learned....
Chorus:
Baby, it's a cold night
But not as cold as you.
Darling, it was a long drive,
But I did what I had to do.
Oh, I'm not making sense, you see,
Nothings very clear.
Took my time and diligence,
But in the end, I'll let go of you,
my dear. ...

[Intro]
[Verse]
The deepest wounds leave no scars.
Just a battered soul.
That no one knows.
Anymore.
Changed my life.
That's not a good thing,
I learned in time.
Can't stand the way I let. you. in.
Chorus:
I feel the distance between us.
In my blood.
You have your opinions,
I have my truth.
I stand my ground.
Don't want you.
Anymore.
Verse:
The saddest songs come from the cruelest hurt.
Just a battle unknown.
All alone.
No one knows me.
Close your eyes.
That's all I can do as I
run
and
hide.
You'll learn in time.
Can't stand in. my. way.
Chorus:
I feel the distance between us.
In my blood.
(in my blood)
You have your opinions,I have my truth.
I stand my ground.
Don't want you around.
Bridge:
Cry to me,
Play tough to me.
Use me. Up. Now.
Baby, don't let me know.
I already started to let you go.
I won't supply you with what you need.
Anymore....
Chorus:
I feel the distance between us.
(Between you and I)
In my Blood. In my blood.
You have your opinions,
I have my truth.
I stand my ground.
On solid ground.
Don't want you, don't want you, don't want you, Around.
I run away, I run away,
Don't tell me you wanted me to stay.
Don't say it.
Don't say it....

[Intro]
[Verse]
I found the "good" in goodbye
Soul's calmer now
Figured life out
Somehow
Waited by my doorstep
Held every breath
Until I realized
A man would
if he wanted to.
But not you.
Pre-Chorus:
Guess I'm saying
you weren't the right man
Immature, comical.
Couldn't stick to a plan
Chorus:
But I was protected
I only flew
I saw new colors
I never could see with you
If you wanted to,
I was waiting at my windowpane
Until the very end
Somehow
I'd never be the same.
Verse:
Hollow soul.
Scared of the unknown
Vulnerable.
Your love was insufferable.
I'd love to say I'm sorry
But all I'm sorry for
Is staying in the mindset
Of a victim for so long
Pre-Chorus:
Guess I'm saying
I wasn't playin'
Those games any longer
Only made me so much stronger.
Chorus:
If you wanted to,
I was waiting to run away
With you
But if you wanted to
You would have.
Kept your word,
Stop the excuses.
Too late for any truces.
Bridge:
Mmm
I,
Wanted you to
I,
Didn't know what to do
So I,
Called you out
Ran my mouth
Tired of it all
So began my downfall
But if I wanted to,
I would've still waited for you.
chorus:
If you wanted to,
I was waiting at my windowpane
Until the very end
Somehow
I'd never be the same.
At some point you learn to play the game.
I never wanted to.
I undid you.
