Written: Sometime mid/late March 2024
Genre: Haunting pop w/ minor indie and alt vibes ( like a mix of making the bed and traitor by Olivia Rodrigo!! )
1ST VERSE:
Crying myself to sleep ( again)
Streaming love is embarrassing on repeat ( again )
Hesitant to make the wrong move
I'm careful to watch my words
Counter clockwise to prove
That I would risk it all for you
PRE-CHORUS:
Never have I been in love and heartbroken at the same time
Darling, I don't want to hurt anymore
Leading right up to the score
CHORUS:
I'm heading right back to the drawing board
You're always mine but I'm never yours
You really know how to whip up a storm
Yet you'll never cut to the core
No, it's not fair that you're always mine but I'm never yours
I've already quit keeping score
I'm heading right back to the drawing board
( the drawing board )
2ND VERSE:
My feelings are on a rollercoaster ride
How do I get off? Tell me where to sign
Cause I swear this is the very last time
I tag along for a love meant to echo demise
I don't know how to feel anymore
It's this love I'll lose that'll always illuse
And that's not a fair thing for you to do
When I'm so fucking in love with you
So rip the bandage and just let me go, let me go
CHORUS:
I'm heading right back to the drawing board
You're always mine but I'm never yours
You really know how to whip up a storm
Yet you'll never cut to the core
No, it's not fair that you're always mine but I'm never yours
I've already quit keeping score
I'm heading right back to the drawing board
( the drawing board )
BRIDGE:
Brief sketches of what we could be
But there's no true way of ever knowing
It's just another first draft
That isn't yet an elite craft
When you'll never be where I'm at
This love was no Louvre
This love was no work of art
You've painted me sad, splattered my heart
I'm not allowed to be mad about that
So I'll just set my love to restart
CHORUS:
I'm heading right back to the drawing board
You're always mine but I'm never yours
You really know how to whip up a storm
Yet you'll never cut to the core
No, it's not fair that you're always mine but I'm never yours
I've already quit keeping score
I'm heading right back to the drawing board
( the drawing board )
