To the Hilt Lyrics

Oh we didn't know...
Before we had seen anything
We believed in everything
All those times you warmed my hand
Maybe things weren't easy as they seem

We begged each other to the hilt
We begged each other to the hilt
Now I live in this house we built

Hated you for leavin' me
You were my muse for so long
Now I'm drained creatively
And I miss you on my team
Hated you for walkin' out
I blew up and you're gone
They say it's just the industry
But I miss you on my team

People say we're better off, you couldn't keep up
I still keep one broken piece
The one that fits on that chip on your shoulder
When we made our master plans
Is this where you thought we would be standing?

We begged each other to the hilt
We begged each other to the hilt
Now I live in this house we built

Hated you for leavin' me
You were my muse for so long
Now I'm drained creatively
And I miss you on my team
Hated you for walkin' out
I blew up and you're gone
They say it's just the industry
But I miss you on my team

We started this together now you're gone
And we said forever we were naive
You saw me as a superstar
And I was a case you helped them see

Hated you for leavin' me
You were my muse for so long
Now I'm drained creatively
And I miss you on my team
Hated you for walkin' out
I blew up and you're gone
They say it's just the industry

(But I miss you on my team)

Jillian Rose Banks (known simply as BANKS) is an American singer-songwriter and musician from Los Angeles, California, United States. She releases music under Harvest Records, Good Year Recordings, and Iamsound Records. She toured internationally with The Weeknd and was also nominated for the Sound of 2014 award by the BBC and an MTV Brand New Nominee in 2014. On May 3rd, 2014, Banks was labeled as an 'Artist To Watch' by Fox Weekly.

BANKS started writing songs at the age of 15. She taught herself piano when she received a keyboard from a friend to help her through her parents' divorce. She says she "felt very alone and helpless. I didn't know how to express what I was feeling or who to talk to." Drawing from inspirations likeFiona Apple and Lauryn Hill, Banks focuses on the duality of soulful earthly emotion and ethereal atmospheric sounds. After reaching a large number of listeners on her Soundcloud page, she began working with the label Good Years. Her first official single, called Before I Ever Met You was released in February 2013.
