Lyrics Nevertheless (She Persisted) - Sharptooth

Nevertheless (She Persisted)

I wrote my own ending
Bled out from wounds I thought beyond mending
I reached into the void
The darkness touched me with her hands
She kissed my forehead
Whispered to me
«Baby, it’s not time to meet me yet»
Maybe that’s what hurt the most
Not even the totality death could even bear to hold me close
So I let go
Tear down my walls
And watch my insides blow apart
Cause when I fall
I’m gonna give it my whole heart
My greatest asset
My biggest weakness
I’ll open up
Because I chose to believe this
I made a choice to believe this
We preach compassion
But then refuse to love ourselves
Hated my darkness
Still I couldn’t ask for help
Still asking questions
Waiting for you all to leave
I cannot steep in love
When I am loathing me
I reached into the void
And darkness touched me with her hands
She kissed my forehead
Whispered to me
«Baby, it’s not time to meet me yet»
And that’s when everything went still
A single thought before I fell
Compassion without compromise
Can only thrive
When I include myself
Nevertheless, I persisted
Nevertheless, I resist
Nevertheless, I persisted
Nevertheless, I exist
