[Verse 1]
Chrome walls, plastic smile
Yeah, I’ve been dead inside a while
You fell for the shine on the surface
But baby, the core ain't worth it
I dress my guilt in leather and gold
But the stench of lies still takes its toll
I poisoned love with every touch
You gave me light, I gave too much rust
---
[Pre-Chorus]
[Glitchy Vox w/ Layered Harmony]
I warned you once, don’t look too deep
There’s mold beneath this luxury
You kissed a ghost, not a man
Now you're choking on the plan
---
[Chorus]
[Heavy Synth Drop]
I’m rotten, baby
Beautiful from afar but toxic lately
You thought you’d fix me, thought you’d save me
But I decay slowly, daily
I’m rotten, baby
Don’t cry for who you thought you’d made me
This heart’s been empty since the '80s
I told you, love me...
At your own risk
---
[Verse 2]
Velvet curtains, broken stage
Another lie I serenade
You gave me grace, I gave you games
Now you’re ash, and I’m the flame
You saw the cracks, still you stayed
Now your love’s in disarray
I drain your hope like sweet champagne
But leave you nothing... not even shame
---
[Pre-Chorus]
[Robotic Echoes + Synth Build]
You built a shrine from rotted wood
I told you run, you said you could
Handle the mess, handle the pain
Now you see — I don’t change
---
[Chorus]
[Refrain, Bigger Drop]
I’m rotten, baby
Beautiful from afar but toxic lately
You thought you’d fix me, thought you’d save me
But I decay slowly, daily
I’m rotten, baby
Don't cry for who you thought you’d made me
This heart’s been haunted, love don’t faze me
You should’ve known...
It’s always been this way
---
[Bridge]
[Spoken/Filtered Vocals Over Warped Beat]
Rotten to the soul
Gold on the grave
You called it love
But I called it game
And baby, I warned you
I always warned you
Love me…
And you’ll rot too
---
[Final Chorus]
[Falsetto + Glitched Outro Synths]
I’m rotten, baby
Beautiful from afar but dark and crazy
I told you truth wrapped in fantasy
Now we’re both part of the tragedy
I’m rotten, baby
There’s no cure — don’t try to save me
I'm the storm, you were the daisy
Now you wilt...
And I remain
