Good While It Lasted

Good While It Lasted" is the ninth track on Ashnikko's debut mixtape, Demidevil. Ashnikko claims the song is very different from the rest of DEMIDEVIL, being more serious than the rest of the album, she told Apple Music: “ My serious song. It’s reflecting on a relationship and being like, “I see now that maybe we both acted immature, and maybe I’m not quite as blameless as I make out.” I think it’s a more mature approach. My favourite part is the first verse. It was a day when I was feeling really sad and very broken and it came from a really real place. It’s extremely raw and I just felt like it needed to be included because it meant a lot to me. All of my stuff is a therapy session. I’m just bringing everyone along for a very public therapy session.”

[Verse 1] I was bitter, broken, busted Ripping up our pictures All these immature emotions My eyes run like rivers I lashed out, I burned your letters I blacked out, I don't remember at all [Pre-Chorus] And what we did was childish Can we put this behind us? (Ooh, ooh) White-hot rage and I was blinded Our big love was so misguided (Ooh, ooh) [Chorus] We can't deny that it was magic Nothing was nice, but I loved every minute All the best of stories end tragic We were (Ooh), we were bad We were good while it lasted (Ooh, ooh) We were good while it lasted (Ooh, ooh) [Verse 2] Forgive me for the nasty things That I say when I'm wounded Now that I can think rationally, I feel so stupid This is so small in the big simulation In the grand scheme of things We were just a blip (We were just a blip) [Pre-Chorus] And what we did was childish Can we put this behind us? (Ooh, ooh) I'm done, I'm done (Ooh) White-hot rage and I was blinded Our big love was so misguided (Ooh, ooh) I'm done, done, I'm done [Chorus] We can't deny that it was magic Nothing was nice, but I loved every minute All the best of stories end tragic We were (Ooh), we were bad We were good while it lasted (Ooh, ooh) We were good while it lasted (I'm done, I'm done) (I'm done, done, done) We were good while it lasted (I'm done, done, done) (I'm done, done, done) We were good while it lasted (I'm done, done, done) (I'm done, done, done) [Outro] I'm done, done, done I'm done, done, done I'm done, done, done I'm done, done, done
