Redheaded Princess

[Verse 1]
Mike
I see you
Scrolling through her perfect life
Double-tap daydreams
While I'm here by your side
You say I'm your secret
Like that makes it feel right
But I'm done playing
Hide and seek at midnight
[Chorus]
You want your cake and eat it too
But I'm the one who bakes it
Boy
It's true
Hollie doesn't know a thing about us
I'm your redheaded princess
That's enough
I'll be the one that always lifts you up (always)
So why you looking everywhere but us?
[Verse 2]
Laugh in your sweatshirt
Stealing all your old band tees
We make fun of her
Then you text her when I leave
You say I'm your future
But you keep me in the past
You kiss me
You miss me
Then you run right back
[Chorus]
You want your cake and eat it too
But I'm the one who bakes it
Boy
It's true
Hollie doesn't know a thing about us
I'm your redheaded princess
That's enough
I'll be the one that always lifts you up (hey!)
So why you looking everywhere but us?
[Bridge]
Pick a lane
Pick a heart
This isn't fair
This is art
I'm not your halfway
Rainy day
I'm the girl you wish would stay
If you love me
Say it straight
I'm not standing here to wait (no)
I won't be your secret crush
While you chase that sugar rush
[Chorus]
You want your cake and eat it too
But I'm the one who bakes it
Boy
It's true
Hollie doesn't know a thing about us
I'm your redheaded princess
That's enough
I'll be the one that always lifts you up (always)
So why you looking everywhere but us?
You want your cake and eat it too
But I deserve a love that's choosing me
Not two

rock, Punchy pop-punk with female vocals, crunchy palm-muted guitars and tight bass locked to fast, driving drums. Verses are snarky and intimate, vocals close and slightly overdriven; choruses explode with gang shouts, octave guitars, and bright harmonies. Brief middle-eight strips to bass and drums before a final, shout-along hook that ramps the energy all the way up., pop punk
