Crystal Ball is the third track from Grimes' split album with d'Eon and first studio extended play Darkbloom. It was originally meant to be given a music video and would be released as the promotional single for the EP, however Grimes decided against it as she was reportedly unhappy with the video made for Crystall Ball. Vanessa was later chosen to become the promotional single off Darkbloom.
Lyrics
Mother
I reach for the dark
Holding on and I can't decide
And I can't decide on him
Holding on and I can't seem to
Can't seem to, oh, begin
Holding on (I won't)
And I got my mind (I can't)
And I got my heart (I know)
And I'll end up fine
Holding on (I won't)
And I can't decide (I can't)
On him (I know)
I won't, I can't
I know, I let you go!
I won't, I can't
I know, I let you go!
I let you go!
I go and I know, and I wait for you
Hold on and go on, 'cos I'll wait for you
Faster, faster, the leaves will fall
The sky will grey and my skin will dull
Hold on and go on, 'cos I'll wait for you
Holding on and I can't decide
And I can't decide on him
Holding on and I can't seem to
Can't seem to, oh, begin
Holding on (I won't)
And I can't decide (I can't)
I can't decide on him (I know, I let you go!)
Holding on (I won't)
And I can't (I can't)
Seem to, can't seem to, oh, begin
(I know, I let you go!)
Can't seem to begin
Can't seem to begin
(I let you go!)
