The Truth
Erisu Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's kinda funny how we fucked up
Where'd the time go?
All our dreams, all our dreams out the window
It's kinda funny how you do
I wasted so much time for you

Forever I would bleed for you
Tell me everything I wanna hear
I know it's not the truth
Fuck am I supposed to do
When everything I ever loved has been slaughtered
Fuck it's true

Forever I would bleed for you
Tell me everything I wanna hear
I know it's not the truth
Fuck am I supposed to do
When everything I ever loved has been slaughtered
Fuck it's true

Fuck you doing to me?
I can't seem to let it go
I fucking loved you but I guess that's not enough for you
Break my bones again and mend me 'till your hearts content
Just slit my throat the pain just never seems to fucking end

I swear I love you but I gotta fucking let you go
What you did to me was wrong I hope you goddamn know
You can't repair the scars you made the blood is on your blade
Forever I would bleed for you, the hate is all I taste

Forever I would bleed for you
Tell me everything I wanna hear
I know it's not the truth
Fuck am I supposed to do
When everything I ever loved has been slaughtered
Fuck it's true

Forever I would bleed for you
Tell me everything I wanna hear
I know it's not the truth
Fuck am I supposed to do




When everything I ever loved has been slaughtered
Fuck it's true

The pain in his voice is the same pain I want to express about my life. Violent, yet beautiful is the feeling of this song...

@222vessel

when he says "forever ill bleed for you" his voice gave me chills

@brocrow5678

this is as close as you can get to how i feel. the sadness and disbelief turning into slight anger and recognition. the loneliness making your heart empty letting you speak your pain. purely amazing. 🖤🖤🖤🖤

Always appreciate your uploads

@deadboy425

This song truly speaks for my heart. I was hurt so bad in the past...although it's been 3 years the scars she caused will never truly mend. All the lies, the betrayal, and pain she caused. She'll never see what she did to me. It changed me..I can't tell if it was for the best or worst. She hurt me so bad...This song truly speaks out to the heartbreaking past we had.
