Glass in My Throat

[Verse 1]
You said “calm down”
oh, you lit the fuse
Lipstick on the filter
same old excuse
My phone face down
heart face first
In a mess you made
and I made worse
[Pre-Chorus]
You call, I let it ring
’Cause I know what you bring
Poison in a promise
sugar on the sting (yeah)
[Chorus]
I’m ticked off, torn up
hands off my heart
You don’t get to break it
then call it art
You want me back
just to watch me choke
Your love cuts deep like
glass in my throat
I’m ticked off, fed up
can’t play that role
You don’t get to touch
what you never held close
You want my tears
just to see me broke
Your love cuts deep like
glass in my throat (yeah)
[Verse 2]
Threw my hoodie
on your side of the bed
’Cause it still smells like
every word you never said
You said it’s “complicated”
that’s a pretty name for lies
You hid a graveyard
right behind your eyes
[Pre-Chorus]
You text, “I kinda miss”
I read, “I need a fix”
You just want a body
to bandage all your tricks (hey)
[Chorus]
I’m ticked off, torn up
hands off my heart
You don’t get to break it
then call it art
You want me back
just to watch me choke
Your love cuts deep like
glass in my throat
I’m ticked off, fed up
can’t play that role
You don’t get to touch
what you never held close
You want my tears
just to see me broke
Your love cuts deep like
glass in my throat
[Bridge]
You say “relax”
I see red
You say “come back”
I lose my head
Every “sorry”
sounds rehearsed
Every kiss
just makes it hurt (oh)
[Chorus]
I’m ticked off, torn up
hands off my heart
You don’t get to break it
then call it art
You want me back
just to watch me choke
Your love cuts deep like
glass in my throat
I’m ticked off, fed up
I’m done, I’m gone
You don’t get a verse
in my next song
You want my tears
but I let you go
Now your name’s stuck like
glass in my throat (yeah)

rap, Dark pop-trap with heavy 808s and detuned bells, female vocals gritty up close, almost whispered in the verses then ripped open in the hook. Melodic topline rides minor-key synth pads; bass hits like a gut punch on downbeats. Stack airy harmonies on the chorus, throw in filtered ad-libs and stuttered vocal chops for the ear candy., emotional, beats, pop
