Look Down on Me

Where were you… when I drowned?

Your throne’s in the clouds… but I’m six feet down…

⸻

You’re like a goddess in disguise

I’m drownin’ slowly in your eyes

It’s like you kill me by design

You’re all I desire (you’re all I desire)

Look down on me, (whoa)

Look down on me, (whoa)

I’m hurting, tryna be strong but it just ain’t working

Look down on me

⸻

Can’t move with my feet stuck in the ground

Built you a temple while I’m breakin’ down

Told myself fake it till I make it—

That would’ve worked by now… but I’m shakin’

You’re Aphrodite, I’m just the sin

Kneel at your altar, let the pain begin

Even if I’m innocent, I’d confess

Kill to watch you undress, feel your breath

Up against mine, hearts collapse

But I’m dyin’ slow and that’s the trap

Romeo bled while you stayed divine

I cross the great divide, but you draw the line

Tell me you love me, tell me you need me

Tell me these scars make me worthy completely

But I’m broken, no clue

How I can lead when I’m barely a believer — I’m through

⸻

Now it’s true…

I’m weaker when you dig a bit deeper, it’s hopeless

But I still worship your ghostess

You ascend, while I’m lowest…

⸻

You’re like a goddess in disguise

I’m drownin’ slowly in your eyes

It’s like you kill me by design

You’re all I desire

Look down on me, (whoa)

Look down on me, (whoa)

I’m hurting, tryna be strong but it just ain’t working

Look down on me

⸻

I’ve done so much, but it feels so little

Stuck in the middle, I burn and I brittle

See a fraud in the mirror, numbers don’t heal

They cheer my pain while I barely feel

If it’s a war they want, I’ll defy their stars

But inside, I’m losin’ to my battle scars

You’re my god and my damn disease

Give me my sin again, bring me to my knees

Messin’ with my self-esteem

Drownin’ in dreams, tearin’ at the seams

I just never wanted you to see me drown

But you look down, yeah, you look down

⸻

I’m not as strong as I claim to be

One big facade, it’s all make believe

I’ve dug so long, now it’s buried deep

And I can’t fake it… can’t fake it— (screamed) CAN’T FAKE IT!

⸻

You’re like a goddess in disguise

(But you look down on me)

I’m drownin’ slowly in your eyes

(While I’m buried underneath)

It’s like you kill me by design

(Every scar, every crime)

You’re all I desire

You’re like a goddess in disguise

I’m drownin’ slowly in your eyes

I could cross the great divide

But only you decide (only you decide)

Look down on me, (whoa)

Look down on me, (whoa)

I’m hurting, tryna be strong but it just ain’t working

Look down on me

⸻

Tell me you love me…

Tell me you need me…

But you… look down… on me…
