Out Loud by Elle Sera
May this song give a voice to women who've endured abusive and toxic relationships.
It’s time the truth is finally spoken
Clear mind, and clean eyes, the curse is finally broken
You left in your victim-hood story
Rewriting reality’s horror
And you said you’d tell them I was after the money *what $
Using my heart like a punching bag
Watching your eyes slowly turn to black
Well it was only a matter of time before I pushed back, running
Your fragile ego’s gonna crash and burn
Light the match and watch you learn (squirm)
You didn’t think I’d figure it out
But all of your secrets are spilling out loud
Your touch was so sweet once
But it was Jeckyl & Hyde before I knew it
Your big dreams and empty words
So covert like a fast poison
But now it screams on a silver screen
Your mommy issues and daddy leaving
I couldn’t ever save you from it all
Now you’re so disconnected from everything
Hollowed out of empathy
And I had it all and you couldn’t own it
CHORUS
You can keep your porn and little flings
Hide behind the weed and drinking
Let everyone keep thinking that you’re so(damn)
upstanding
You know that we both know the facts
How when you’re all alone and the shame attacks
And you treat the next one just as bad
Well, I was looking for a king and not settling a seedling
CHORUS
*Absolute gratitude to Dean Dichoso for his heart, wit, talent and dedication.
And to Eddie Haddard for crushing the guitars, the jokes, holding grounded lighthearted presence and helping this project align.
