Change pronouns as you see fit. CW: ED, depression, etc
âMeet me at midnightâ
âYou donât ever say too much.â
âYou donât really read into my melancholia.â
âIâve been under scrutiny.â
âYou handle it beautifully.â
âAll this shit is new to me.â
âI feel a lavender haze creeping up on me.â
âIâm damned if I do give a damn what people say.â
âI just wanna stay in the lavender haze.â
âAll they keep asking me is if Iâm gonna be your bride.â
âThe only kind of girl they see is a one night or a bride.â
âI just need this love spiral.â
âGet it off your chest.â
âGet it off my desk.â
âCause we lost track of time again.â
âHowâd we end up on the floor anyway?â
âThe lips I used to call home, so scarlet it was maroon.â
âWhen the silence came we were shaking blind and hazy.â
âHow the hell did we lose sight of us again?â
âSobbing with your head in your hands.â
âAinât that the way shit always ends?â
âCarnations you thought were roses, that was us.â
âI feel you no matter what.â
âAwake with your memory over me.â
âThatâs a real fucking legacy to leave.â
âI have this thing where I get older but just never wiser.â
âMidnights becomes my afternoon.â
âWhen my depression works the graveyard shift l of the people i ghosted stand in the room.â
âI should not be left to my own devices.â
âThey come with prices and vices.â
âI end up in crisis.â
âIâve realized all this time.â
âI wake up screaming from dreaming.â
âOne day Iâll watch as youâre leaving.â
âYou got tired of my scheming for the last time.â
âItâs me, Iâm the problem, itâs me.â
âAt tea time, everybody agrees.â
âIâll stare directly at the sun but never in the mirror.â
âIt must be exhausting always rooting for the anti hero.â
âIâm a monster on the hill.â
âPierced through the heart, but never killed.â
âDid you hear my covert narcissism disguised as altruismâ
âLife will lose all of its meaning for the last time.â
âI have this dream my daughter in law kills meâ
âSheâs laughing up at us from hell.â
âI saw flecks of what couldâve been lights.â
âIt might have just been you.â
âLife is emotionally abusive.â
âMy flight was awful, thanks for asking.â
âIâm unglued thanks to you.â
âItâs like snow on the beach.â
âWeird but fucking beautiful.â
âTonight feels impossible.â
âIâve never seen someone live from within.â
âTo hide that would be dishonest.â
âItâs fine to fake it til you make it.â
âI canât speak, afraid to jinx it.â
âI donât even dare to wish it.â
âCan this be a real thing?â
Youâre on your own, kid.
âSummer went away, still the yearning stays.â
âI play it cool with the best of them.â
âI wait patiently, heâs gonna notice me.â
âI didnât choose this town.â
âI dream of getting out.â
âI waited ages to see you live.â
âJust to learn you never cared.â
âYouâre on your own kid. You always have been.â
âI see the great escape.â
âI picked the petals, he loves me not.â
âSomething different bloomed.â
âI gave my blood, spending tears more or less.â
âI hosted parties and starved my body.â
âLike Iâd be saved by the perfect kiss.â
âI looked around in a blood soaked gown.â
âCause there were pages turned when the bridges burned.â
âEverything you lose is a step you take.â
âYeah you can face this.â
âI donât remember what you said or how you said it.â
âThe way you looked at me so different.â
âCold as ice, I wonât forget it.â
âThe way you change your heart, itâs like the weather.â
âYouâre willful, Iâm headstrong.â
âThe daybreaks, I move on.â
âStill one thing I canât long for.â
âFeels like midnight rain.â
âI canât help it, I hear your name.â
âI canât seem to wash you away.â
âStill I got myself in your flames.â
âI wouldnât wonder what youâre doing with your time.â
âIf you have a lover.â
âI pretend youâre forgiven.â
âWhen I change my heart, youâre not forgiven.â
âBig cities, wrong choices.â
âWe had one thing going on.â
âI swear that it was something.â
âI donât remember who I was before you.â
âOne thing after another fucking situations, circumstances, miscommunications.â
âBy the way, I just may like some explanations.â
âCan I ask you a question?â
âDid you ever have someone kiss you in a crowded room?â
âThen what did you do?â
âDid you leave her house in the middle of the night?â
âDid you wish you put up more of a fight?â
âWhen she said it was too much, do you wish you could still touch her?â
âShe was on your mind with some dickhead guy.â
âYouâre not sure and I donât know.â
âDoes it feel like everythingâs just like second best?â
âWhat was that that I heard? That youâre still with her?â
âDraw the cat eye sharp enough to kill a man.â
âYou did some bad things, but Iâm the worst of them.â
âSometimes I wonder which one of them will be your last lie.â
âThey say looks can kill and I might try.â
âLately Iâve been dressing for revenge.â
âI donât start shit but I can tell you how it ends.â
âDonât get sad, get even.â
âShe needed cold hard proof, so I gave her some.â
âPicture me, thick as thieves with your ex wife.â
âAnd she looks so pretty driving in your benz.â
âLadies always rise above.â
âSomeone sweet and kind and fun.â
âWell he was doing lines, and crossing all of mine.â
âI donât dress for villains, or for innocents.â
âIâm on my vigilante shit.â
âDidnât notice you walking all over my piece of mind.â
âAnd by the way, Iâm going out tonight.â
âBest believe Iâm still bejeweled when I walk in the room.â
âI can still make the whole place shimmer.â
âFamiliarity breeds contempt.â
âDiamonds in my eyes, I polish up real nice.â
âI think Iâve been too good of a girl.â
âI think itâs time to teach some lessons.â
âI made you my world, but have you heard, I can reclaim the land?â
âI miss you, but I miss sparkling.â
âWhen I meet the band, they ask âdo you have a manâ i can still say I donât remember.â
âSapphire tears on my face, sadness becomes my whole sky.â
âSome guy said my auraâs moonstone just âcause he was high.â
âWhatâs a girl gonna do? A diamondâs gotta shine.â
âIt only hurts this much right now.â
âBreathe in, breathe through, breathe deep, breathe out.â
âIâll be getting over you my whole life.â
âYou know how scared I am.â
âIt rises past, it canât last.â
âUh-oh, Iâm falling in love.â
âOh no, Iâm falling in love again.â
âHowâd you turn it right around.â
âLost in the labyrinth of my mind.â
âBreak up, break through, break free, break down. â
âYou know how much I hate that everybody expects me to just bounce back.â
âYou talkinâ shit for the hell of it.â
âAddicted to betrayal but youâre relevant.â
âYouâre terrified to look down.â
âIf you dare, youâll see the glare of everyone you burned just to get there.â
âI keep my side of the street clean.â
âYou wouldnât know what I mean.â
âKarmaâs a relaxing thought.â
âBut for you, itâs not sweet like honey.â
âFlexing like a god damn acrobat.â
âWeave your little webs of opacity.â
âMy pennies made your crowns.â
âTrick me once, trick me twice.â
âDid you know cash ainât the only price?â
âAsk me what I learned from all those years.â
âCause Karma is the thunder, rattling the ground.â
âSweet like justice.â
âDoes it ever miss sometimes?â
âThey said the end is coming.â
âEveryone is up to something.â
âAll you ever wanted from me was sweet nothingsâ
âYou say what a mind, it happens all the time.â
âThe voices that implore, you should be doing more.â
âI canât admit that Iâm too soft for all of it.â
âOnce upon a time, the planets and the fates aligned.â
âYou and I ended up in the same room at the same time.â
âThe touch of a hand lit the fuse.â
âA chain reaction of counter moves.â
âCheckmate: I couldnât lose.â
âWhat if I told you none of it was accidental?â
âThe first night that you saw me, nothing was gonna stop me.â
âI laid the groundwork and then, just like clockwork, the dominoes cascaded in a line.â
âWhat if I told you Iâm a mastermind.â
âAnd now youâre mine.â
âIt was all by design.â
âWe were born to be the pawn in every lovers game.â
âIf you fail to plan, you plan to fail.â
âWhat if I told you none of it was accidental, and the first night that you saw me, i knew I wanted your body?â
âIt was all my designâ
âNo one wanted to play with me as a little kid.â
âIâve been scheming like a criminal ever since.â
âTo make them love me, and make it seem effortless.â
âThis is the first time I felt the need to confess.â
âI swear Iâm only cryptic and Machiavellian because I care.â
âSaw a wide smirk on your face- you knew the entire time?â
