Slow Burn On Your Tongue

[Verse 1]
You lean on my doorway
Smell like trouble and cologne
Act like you don’t want me
Eyes say take me home
You talk in half-answers
Tracing circles on your glass
Every word a little dare
Every pause about my past
[Pre-Chorus]
You ask if I’ve been sleeping
I say “barely
On my own”
You smirk like you’ve been dreaming
Of my makeup on your phone (mm)
[Chorus]
Do you wanna taste this slow burn on your tongue?
Kiss me like a bad idea you already love
Say you’re just curious
I know what that does
Do you
Do you
Do you
Wanna come undone?
On my lips
On my hips
’Til the night goes numb
Do you wanna taste this slow burn on your tongue?
[Verse 2]
You’re laughing at my records
Spinning stories
Spinning lies
Saying you’re a “good one”
With a hand up on my thigh
You pull me in the kitchen
Make the counter feel like sin
Every inch a conversation
Every answer’s in your grin
[Pre-Chorus]
You say you hate the quiet
I say “turn the volume up”
You say you’re bad at hiding
How you wanna mess me up (oh)
[Chorus]
Do you wanna taste this slow burn on your tongue?
Kiss me like a bad idea you already love
Say you’re just curious
I know what that does
Do you
Do you
Do you
Wanna come undone?
On my lips
On my hips
’Til the night goes numb
Do you wanna taste this slow burn on your tongue?
[Bridge]
You say
“We could stop”
Hand still on my skin
I say
“We should talk”
And pull you back in
If you’re gonna cross that line
Better cross it twice
Say my name
Take your time
Make it feel like vice (yeah)
[Chorus]
Do you wanna taste this slow burn on your tongue?
Kiss me like a bad idea you already love
Say you’re just curious
I know what that does
Do you
Do you
Do you
Wanna come undone?
On my lips
On my hips
’Til the night goes numb
Do you wanna taste this slow burn on your tongue?

rock, Sultry female vocals over a bluesy alt-pop groove; swung, mid-tempo drums and dirty tremolo guitar carry the verses, bass walking in and out of shadow. Pre-chorus leans into smoky reverb and close-mic whispers; chorus explodes with stacked harmonies, distorted lead guitar answering the vocal. Bridge strips to voice and bass before a final, bigger hook with ad-libs and a teasing, unresolved ending., pop, vocal, blues
