[Intro]
[whispered, panned left-right]
Two sides
Same skin
Which one
Let in?
[Verse 1 - Female]
Red nails on the bathroom sink
Mascara smeared, I don't even blink
Halo on the hanger, I don't wear that thing
Devil in Dior, I just let her sing (hah)
I taste that venom on my tongue, feel it drip
Every little secret that I keep, power trip
Good girl praying in my head, "don't flip"
Bad one laughing like, "baby, let it rip" (let it rip)
[Pre-Chorus - Female]
Heart split, heavy like a chain
Peace talk, chaos in my veins
One side begging me to breathe
Other one ready to bleed
[Chorus - Female lead, Male ad-libs]
I'm fighting my venom and virtue
(yeah)
Wrong lane, right turn, it hurts too
(skrrt)
Chaos or peace, I can't choose
I can't choose, I can't choose
If I let the venom guide me
(guide me)
Will I lose the light inside me?
(lose it)
Thrill in the fall when I break my own rules
I break my own rules, I break my own…
[Verse 2 - Male]
Black hoodie, mirror talk, "who you tryna be?"
Saint on a Sunday, sinner all week
Text unsent, but I type it on repeat
Say I'm done with the drama, then I dive deep (dive deep)
Angel on my shoulder talkin' "bro, just chill"
Other side loading up a list to kill
Not with hands, but with words, yeah I know that skill
Turn love to a weapon just for the thrill (uh)
[Pre-Chorus - Male]
My rights, my wrongs in a head-on crash
Halo in the gutter, pockets full of cash
One road quiet like a midnight drive
Other one burning just to feel alive
[Chorus - Both]
I'm fighting my venom and virtue
(venom and virtue)
Wrong lane, right turn, it hurts too
(it hurts too)
Chaos or peace, I can't choose
I can't choose, I can't choose
If I let the venom guide me
(guide me)
Will I lose the light inside me?
(inside me)
Thrill in the fall when I break my own rules
I break my own rules, I break my own…
[Bridge - Female + Male call & response]
[Fem] If I pick peace, will I still feel real?
[Male] If I pick rage, will the scars all heal?
[Fem] I love that shiver when I cross that line
[Male] I hate that mirror when it steals my shine
[Fem] Tell me, do I tame this poison?
[Male] Or make it part of my prayer?
[Both] Maybe I’m both, and the war in my chest
Is the reason I’m still here
[Chorus - Final, Both]
I'm fighting my venom and virtue
(venom and virtue)
Wrong lane, right turn, it hurts too
(it hurts too)
Chaos or peace, I can't choose
I can't choose, I can't choose
If I let the venom guide me
(guide me)
Will I lose the light inside me?
(lose it)
Thrill in the crash when I blur all the rules
I blur all the rules, I blur all the…
[Outro - Whispered, layered]
Two sides
Same skin
Open the door
And let us in
