Hateful Ever After Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Nothing is holy, I can’t leave it fully
In my head, there’s an image of roses
That you pulled me from the ground
Where you showed me
How much you needed me
Said I completed your belief that a love could be
Demonized and ridden with disease
But still so persistent
[Pre-Chorus]
Four eyes to watch each other cry
Three lies you whispered to me that night
Two arms to hold my broken trust
One heart for the both of us
[Chorus]
Then I see thе white light, a hateful evеr after
One story turned to a disaster
Don’t tell my mother, please
That I still cry in dreams, the only place we meet
And all the fine lines, to think they didn’t matter
One story, drop it, watch it shatter
Don’t tell my brother, please
I know he worries about me
Sees I've been losing sleep
[Verse 2]
I’m not regretful, it’s driving me mental
Life without you is so uneventful
I prefer the pain over solitude, I'm not ashamed
Lowest of lows but the highs were a tower
You and I on the balcony
Loudly said that you loved me
And did it proudly, knowing the ugly
[Chorus]
Then I see the white light, a hateful ever after
One story turned to a disaster
Don’t tell my mother, please
That I still cry in dreams, the only place we meet
And all the fine lines, to think they didn’t matter
One story, drop it, watch it shatter
Don’t tell my brother, please
I know he worries about me
Sees I've been losing sleep
[Bridge]
I believe that something powerful was opening the door
One hundred candles snuffed at once
Told me all I needed to know
But I can’t go back even if I want
Oh, honey, you’re so far gone
I wish it turned it out quietly and kind
[Chorus]
Then I see the white light, a hateful ever after
One story turned to a disaster
Don’t tell my mother, please
That I still cry in dreams, the only place we meet
And all the fine lines, to think they didn’t matter
One story, drop it, watch it shatter
Don’t tell my brother, please
I know he worries about me
Sees I've been losing sleep
[Outro]
Four eyes to watch each other cry
Three lies you whispered to me that night
Two arms to hold my broken trust
One heart for the both of us

The overall theme of this album was fairy tales, so I wanted all the titles to be super cohesive and make sense in that way. I’m always big on song titles. Hateful Ever After is about the bittersweet feelings of an on and off relationship finally ending for good, so it felt right to play a spin on “...
What was it like to see your vision come to life with Adam after writing alone?
Adam and I just started working together during the creation of this project. We made Sandman in our first session, and Hateful Ever After in our second one. I love how his brain works!! He was doing things production-wise that I had never seen anyone do before. To me, HEA and Sandman are the two mo...
