Aftermath

*Verse 1*
You built a courtroom out of screenshots and lies
Whisper campaigns under fluorescent lights
Group chats buzzing like a hive in my head
Every word you twisted wanted me dead

You painted monsters in the shape of my face
Turned every hallway into hostile space
I burned for months, yeah I wanted revenge
But anger dulls when the story bends

*Pre-Chorus*
Now the whispers die when I walk in
Your perfect script’s wearing thin

*Chorus*
And now you run when you see me coming
Eyes Slam shut like the sky is falling
You played the victim so long you believed it
But nobody buys what you’re selling anymore

You tried to drag me down below you
Built your throne out of “poor you”'s
I used to hate you — now it’s pathetic
Watching you choke on the mess you invented

*Verse 2*
Documents stacked like a holy crusade
Acting like justice while sharpening blades
You wanted power, wanted tears, wanted proof
But truth survives what fear can’t remove

And I remember every sleepless night
Every panic attack under bathroom lights
Now I just laugh when you turn away
Guess the ghosts you made still make you afraid

*Pre-Chorus*
You can keep the shattered crown
I don’t need to strike you down

*Chorus*
Cause now you run when you see me coming
Like your own lies finally started hunting
You play the victim with your shaking hands
But your stories don’t survive where I stand

You tried to bury me beneath your chaos
Now you’re terrified nobody saw us
The same way you imagined in your head
I’m still alive while your fiction’s dead

*Bridge / Breakdown*
There was a time I called you family
Swore your pain was safe with me
I would've carried every scar you hid
Back when I thought your heart was real

Maybe that’s the part that hurts the most
Not the rumors or the ghosts
Just finding out the sister that I knew
Was someone you pretended to be too

Now I don’t burn, I don’t break
I don’t have the strength to hate
Cause underneath the poison and performance
You just look lonely to me

And God… I pity you
Cause I loved you like blood
While you treated love like something to use

*Instrumental swell*

*Final Chorus*
Now you run when you see me laughing
No rage left, no strings attached and
You can keep pretending I’m the villain
While everyone sees who you’ve really been

You wanted war, wanted me destroyed
Now your own games leave you paranoid
I’m not the monster you designed
And that kills you more than losing mine

*Outro*
So hide behind another story
Another chat, another warning
I won’t fight for innocence anymore
Cause truth walked out that door before I did.
