One of my fav songs, and the writing always felt (OG) trilogy persona-adjacent . thought i'd share it here

basically singing to a girl about how he's about to treat her like s***, in the most beautiful way

"You laugh at every word, trying hard to be cute
I almost feel sorry for what I'm gonna do"

"You're using all your looks that you've thrown from the start
If you let me have my way, I swear I'll tear you apart"

"my tongue will taste of gin and malicious intent"

"I will lie awake
And lie for fun and fake the way I hold you
Let you fall for every empty word I say"
