Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You show up late
Cherry gloss and a paper smile
Posting your pain
In a caption that cracks
“I’m fine”
We laugh too loud
Over secrets we never touch
You say you’re tired
But you stay till it all goes hush
[Pre-Chorus]
I see your hands shake
Hidden in your coat
Joking ’bout the things that almost took you home
You say you’re “just playing”
But I hear you praying
[Chorus]
Sugar on the knife
You’re sweet on the edge (hey!)
Dancing on the table like the floor’s a ledge
Laugh it off
Laugh it off
Call it “just my life”
You’re so alive with a look that’s tired
Burning like a party that’s caught on fire
A little bit of heaven on the way to goodnight
Sugar on the knife
[Verse 2]
You text “I’m bored”
Whole phone full of almost-crying
You change the board
Every time that the truth starts sliding
You pour one more
Say it helps you to “clear your head”
But your smile’s worn thin
Like the sheets on your unmade bed
[Pre-Chorus]
You throw your dark thoughts into plastic cups
Say it tastes lighter when you dress it up
You say you’re “just joking”
But your eyes are open
[Chorus]
Sugar on the knife
You’re sweet on the edge (woah)
Dancing on the table like the floor’s a ledge
Laugh it off
Laugh it off
Call it “just my life”
You’re so alive with a look that’s tired
Burning like a party that’s caught on fire
A little bit of heaven on the way to goodnight
Sugar on the knife
[Bridge]
Do you ever get quiet
When the lights go dim?
Does the mirror get heavy
When you stare at your skin?
If you’re scared of the silence
I can sing through the night (through the night)
I can hold your shaking
Till the dark feels light (oh)
[Chorus]
Sugar on the knife
We’re sweet on the edge
Dancing on the table
Every step a ledge
Laugh it off
Laugh it off
Call it “just our life”
If you’re alive with your heart on fire
We can make a promise we’re not getting tired
A little bit of heaven just for staying alive
Sugar on the knife
Sugar on the knife

Style
pop, Punchy modern pop with bright synth stabs, tight drums, and a rubbery bass line. Male vocals, playful yet edged delivery. Pre-chorus drops to half-time with airy pads, then chorus explodes with stacked gang vocals on the hook, crisp claps, and a glossy, high-energy top line. Bridge strips to bass and vocal before final chorus hits harder with added ad-libs and octave harmonies.
