[Intro – whispered / music box tone]
Hush now, don’t you cry
Pretty poison lullaby
Tick-tock, candy clock
Love me ‘til your heartbeat stops
⸻
[Verse 1]
Lipstick cherry, razor smile
Innocent but running wild
Dollhouse with a broken key
You say “forever,” follow me
Velvet ribbons round your wrist
Kiss me like it doesn’t exist
Sweet like sugar on your tongue
Tell me I’m your only one
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Who’s the softest of them all?
Baby, say my name real slow
Watch how quickly angels fall
⸻
[Chorus]
La-la-la, love me tender
Bite my heart, I won’t surrender
Pink halo, black eyeliner
You’re my favorite little sinner
Na-na-na, don’t run away
Play my game, you’re gonna stay
Cotton candy, nightshade bloom
I’ll be your sweetest doom
⸻
[Post-Chorus – trap bounce]
Pop-pop, heartbeat drop
808 go boom-boom, don’t stop
Cute face, cold stare
Wrap you up in my nightmare
⸻
[Verse 2]
Glitter tears and lace gloves
Write your name in hearts and blood
Carousel goes round and round
Hear that pretty broken sound
Lullaby in minor key
You belong inside with me
Every “no” sounds just like “please”
Fall down to your candy knees
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
Close your eyes and count to three
Tell me who you wanna be
Good girls never tell the truth
Bad girls taste like ecstasy
⸻
[Chorus]
La-la-la, love me tender
Bite my heart, I won’t surrender
Pink halo, black eyeliner
You’re my favorite little sinner
Na-na-na, don’t run away
Play my game, you’re gonna stay
Cotton candy, nightshade bloom
I’ll be your sweetest doom
⸻
[Rap Break – minimal 808, tight hats]
Yeah
Sugar on my lips but it cut like glass
Pretty little ghost, yeah I move real fast
Heartbeat frozen when I walk right past
You don’t wanna leave but you know you can’t
Pink nails tapping on a blacked-out screen
Good girl face but I think so mean
La-la-love when I intervene
Sweet nightmare in a daydream scene
⸻
[Bridge – stripped back, whisper to belt]
Shh… I’m your dream inside a dream
Soft static on your screen
If you wake, I disappear
So hold me close, keep me near
Sweet obsession, tight embrace
Heaven hiding in my lace
Say you’ll never set me free
Say you’re made of me
⸻
[Final Chorus – bigger drums, layered harmonies]
La-la-la, love me tender
Bite my heart, I won’t surrender
Pink halo, black eyeliner
You’re my favorite little sinner
Na-na-na, don’t run away
Play my game, you’re gonna stay
Cotton candy, nightshade bloom
I’ll be your sweetest doom
⸻
[Outro – music box fades]
Hush now, don’t you cry
Pretty poison lullaby
If you leave, just know it’s true…
I’ll still be inside of you
