Crown by Ila Amiri Lyrics

Verse 1:

If you really cared
If it wasn’t all a lie
You would be able to look me in the eyes

And say it to my face
That this is goodbye
I gave you all I had and now you’re leaving it behind

Pre-Chorus:

But we were always meant to break
From the start, I knew I was making a mistake
But I still stayed

Chorus:

And you’re the one who started this
You’re the one who leaned in for the first kiss
And I pulled away, but you pulled me back
And now that I’m here you’re packing your bags
And I can’t believe I wasted nine months
On someone who clearly didn’t give a fuck
That they were pulling me down, dragging me around
All you cared about was your stupid crown

Verse 2:

So go on and try
Try to deny
Whatever it takes to help you sleep at night
And now you say
That we were only ever friends
But you can’t pretend away the nights you were sleeping in my bed

Pre-Chorus:

And I’ve never felt so used
I asked so many times if it was hopeless to wait for you
God I wish you would’ve told the truth

Chorus:

And you’re the one who started this
You’re the one who leaned in for the first kiss
And I pulled away, but you pulled me back
And now that I’m here you’re packing your bags
And I can’t believe I wasted nine months
On someone who clearly didn’t give a fuck
That they were pulling me down, dragging me around
All you cared about was your stupid crown

Bridge/Outro:

But still now after all you did
I catch myself waiting for a sorry to forgive
But you got bored of your sick game
So the sorry never came


But I know that I’m better off
You only ever made me feel like I was not enough
So if you’re gonna pull away, I won’t pull back
It’s my turn now to finally pack my bags
