The One Who Laughs Last

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

There's a war inside of me

And you watch it silently

Any idiot could see

That I killed all the hope that I had

There's a war inside of me

Burning red and honestly

And I wave it constantly

Like a flag like a flag like a flag

His knife that's in my back

Keeps twisting

Anxiety attacks

This is a battleground

I'm caught in the crossfire

My words are weaponry

And I'm waiting patiently

You'll win the battle now

But I will return the fire

'Cause I'd crawl on broken glass

To be the one who laughs last

You're advancing mercilessly

Unprovoked and needlessly

And I'll march you into the sea

Just to watch you drown in the end

I am used to these black eyes

To be bruised, antagonized

But it overwhelms my mind to believe that I called you a friend

This knife that's in my back

Keeps twisting

Anxiety attacks

This is a battleground

I'm caught in the crossfire

My words are weaponry

And I'm waiting patiently

You'll win the battle now

But I will return the fire

'Cause I'd crawl on broken glass

To be the one

This is a battleground

I'm caught in the crossfire

My words are weaponry

And I'm waiting patiently

You'll win the battle now

But I will return the fire

'Cause I'd crawl on broken glass

To be the one who laughs last

Down the trenches I will go

Fight the armies on my own

I alone

This is a battleground

I'm caught in the crossfire

My words are weaponry

And I'm waiting patiently

You'll win the battle now

But I will return the fire

'Cause I'd crawl on broken glass to be the one

This is a battleground

I'm caught in the crossfire

My words are weaponry

And I'm waiting patiently

You'll win the battle now

But I will return the fire

'Cause I'd crawl on broken glass to be the one who laughs last
