Corvina

Lyrics

(Intro)
[(Slow, heavy bass pulse.... Distant, haunting violin....)
(Vocal starts as a low, intimate whisper)]
​(Verse 1)
You built a pedestal out of broken glass....
Told me I was holy while you watched the hours pass....
You gave me the nectar.... then you gave me the drought....
Left me a goddess with a heart full of doubt....
I was the devotee.... the girl in the light....
But you played your games in the dead of the night....
​(Pre-Chorus)
You think you’re the master of the long-term play....
Counting my chances like they’d never fade away....
But every promise you broke was a brick in my wall....
Now I’m the only one standing.... and you’re bound to fall....
​(Chorus)
Oh, look at the "Beast".... so small in the sun....
Don’t you realize the game is already won?....
You’re holding a leash that’s no longer attached....
To a fire you started.... to a flame you unmatched....
I’m Corvina now.... I’m the shadow you fear....
The closer you get.... the more I disappear....
​(Verse 2)
You traded my future for a temporary thrill....
Now you’re the ghost and I’m the one with the will....
You’re still using the old scripts.... the same tired lines....
While I’m rewriting the stars and the signs....
How does it feel to be so predictable?....
To think you’re a god while you’re just.... pitiful....
​(Bridge)
(Music drops to a minimal, heartbeat rhythm)
I gave you my gold.... you gave me your lead....
I’m the predator now.... and it’s time that I’m fed....
Not with your words.... not with your lies....
But with the look of the fool.... deep in your eyes....
​(Guitar/Synth Solo)
(Distorted, sharp, and soaring)
​(Chorus)
I’m Corvina now.... I’m the shadow you fear....
The closer you get.... the more I disappear....
You’re holding a leash that’s no longer attached....
To a fire you started.... to a flame you unmatched....
​(Outro)
(Slow fade with a mocking laugh in the background)
You played a goddess.... and you lost the girl....
Now I’m the one.... who rules the world....
Pathetic....
(Echoing)
....Pathetic....
(Final heavy bass note)
