Your Favorite Regret

[Verse 1]
You hit my phone at 2:09
“Are you alone?” you never lie
Uber in
Mascara eyes
Lipstick on
You’re still his wife
You drop your keys on my nightstand
Say his name
Then take off your bands
You tell me “stop” and pull me closer
Every time
We cross that line all over (mmm)
[Pre-Chorus]
You say you hate that you need this
Skin on skin
But you keep it
Pray in the car
Then you sin in my bed
Halo on
But your hands on my chest (yeah)
[Chorus]
I’m your favorite regret
The one you swear you’ll forget
But you crawl back under these sheets
Tracing all your lies on me (on me)
You say
“This is the last time
I swear”
While you’re tangled up in my hair
You don’t love me
You just drown your stress
I’m your favorite
Your favorite regret (oh yeah)
[Verse 2]
You leave your scent in my t-shirt
Deep nail marks
Little love hurts
Screenshot texts that you’ll delete
Half-dressed truths in my backseat
You cry slow tears in my shower
Say you’ll tell him in an hour
But your phone’s face down on the tile
While you ride the guilt and the high (ride it)
[Pre-Chorus]
You say you hate that you need this
Bite your lip when you mean it
Cross on your neck
On my tongue in your breath
Every “never again” turns to “one more” instead (one more)
[Chorus]
I’m your favorite regret
The one you swear you’ll forget
But you crawl back under these sheets
Tracing all your lies on me (all on me)
You say
“This is the last time
I swear”
While you’re tangled up in my hair
You don’t love me
You just drown your stress
I’m your favorite
Your favorite regret
[Bridge]
You leave before the sun hits
Dark shades on
Same lipstick
Practice your excuses in my doorway (yeah)
“I was with friends
” you rehearse it
You replay
But you’ll be back when it’s quiet
Thighs on fire
Heart in riot
And I’ll still open up this bed
Addicted to being your bad habit (uh)
[Chorus]
I’m your favorite regret
The one you swear you’ll forget
But you crawl back under these sheets
Tracing all your lies on me (on me, on me)
You say
“This is the last time
I swear”
While you’re tangled up in my hair
You don’t love me
You just drown your stress
I’m your favorite
Your favorite regret (yeah, yeah)
[Outro]
Turn off your halo
Keep the heels on (keep ’em on)
Leave all your morals in the front seat
You’ll hate yourself when the sun sets
But right now I’m your favorite regret (mmm)

Slow-burning late-night R&B with male vocals, reverse-piano intro sliding into a deep, syrupy groove. Tight, swung drums, sub bass gliding under warm Rhodes chords. Verses are intimate and whispered with stacked harmonies, pre-chorus adds airy falsetto layers, chorus blooms with lush background vocals and seductive ad-libs. Subtle guitar slides and filtered pads create a hazy, after-midnight atmosphere; reverb-drenched outro lets the hook echo in the dark., r&b
