WINNER'S SONG

 

Spoiler

 

“17”

fear vs. courage

 

verse one

Staring into space beyond the window of the bus

Reminiscing days of when I knew who I could trust

Seventeen and you’re the only thing I’ve figured out

Lost within my thoughts until I nearly miss my house

 

Searching for composure as I’m walking up the drive

This could be the most important moment of my life

Still so undecided if it’s something I should do

But I’m tired of the hiding and alive when I’m with you

 

pre-chorus one

Tiptoe past the creaky porch and slide my key inside the door

Locked in hesitation from a fate that calls my name

 

chorus one

I’ve waited for the perfect time

But perfect moments don’t exist

There’ll never be a better night

To open up my heart like this

I take a breath and clear my throat

I stutter, stammer, start to choke

When mother asks if I’m okay

I look her in the face and say I’m…

 

verse two

Talkin’ to myself here on the gravel trail home

Trying to prepare for the entire conversation

Seventeen and you’re the only thing I wanna know

I don’t even care who’s overhearing what I’m sayin’

 

None of this is easy but they oughta know the truth

Guessin’ I’ll be tough enough to handle all the fighting

Finally decided that it’s what I’ve gotta do

‘Cause I’m tired of the hiding but alive when I’m with you

 

pre-chorus two

Hurry past my bedroom door and throw my backpack on the floor

Feels like I’m awakened by a fate that calls my name

 

chorus two

I’ve waited for the perfect time

But perfect moments don’t exist

There’ll never be a better night

To open up my heart like this

I take a breath and clear my throat

Rehearsing each scenario

When mama asks if I’m okay

I look her in the face and say I’m…

 

middle eight

Sorry that I froze, but really what did you expect?

I’ve never been the type to conquer stressful situations

Sorry that my honesty’s a truth they can’t accept

I’m left without a home and told I’m destined for damnation

This is what I’ll tell you when I see you in the morning

This is what I’ll tell you when I reach your house at midnight

Hear a knock and catch your silhouette beneath the awning

Broken like your bell and spirit dimmer than your porch light

 

bridge

I ask you why you’re here so late

Then see the teardrops on your face

I walked for miles and braved the cold

I’m left with nowhere else to go

You still assume that I’ve told mine

Perhaps they took the news just fine

I close my eyes and take a breath

I guess you haven’t told them yet

 

I hear the sound of creaking stairs

I know that noise, somebody’s there

Your parents suddenly appear

They wonder what you’re doing here

I still decide to share our truth

And tell them I’m in love with you

My mother gasps in clear distress

When asked if true, I answer… “No.”

 

outro

I closed the door on us that night you closed the door on me

Your answer hurt me harder than the concrete where I sleep

Of all the words I’ve ever said I taste our last the most

It comes to me in dreams at night and won’t leave me alone

I still replay my mama’s final words inside my mind

I know that mother wouldn’t say this if she knew the truth

With hatred in her eyes, with loving in her smile

“What’d I ever do to deserve a son like you.

I'm grateful. If my #1 wasn't even an 8, I can only imagine I barely scraped a 6 for this this round.

@funnellegs :(

 

I'm sorry funnel, you're one of the most consistent writers in this game and you were done especially wrong this round. You've repeaked 11 seasons later and even gotten another #1, and that's something not everyone can say.

:'( Very sad to be out, thank you @ceremonials and all the judges for your help over the season. To focus on the positives, I really do feel like I've written some of my best stuff this season. So THANKS GALS, it's been real :heart2:

@Nait Phoenix :(

 

I'm sorry Nait, but your average from last round really weighed you down. If only eternal bop "Hubris" counted towards this score. :( Still, you're one of PH's many pre-S7 icons, and it's been a pleasure to read your work for once.

Next round info/Rounds 5-7 Scores coming tonight~

Great.

 

Rest in peace btw @Nait Phoenix :( Some people die too soon

I'm very shocked, honestly. Even I was rooting for pears! :skull: (mainly so I could read Spectrum nn) Gays and Bis really won this round! But I'm so glad I could turn things around for myself. Thanks to those who congratulated. Saint Hug was robbed, btw.

 

Not funnel and Nait leaving us, two pre-S6 legends. :cries: This phase was brutal... (also did KatyCatPH's submission not count? :weeps:)
