The 80/20 Rule

(Intro: Girl 1 & Girl 2)

(Slow, moody guitar builds into a mid-tempo beat with heavy bass)

(Girl 1): Midnight shadows on the wall...

(Girl 2): Fast cars, leaving me wanting it all...

(Both; Girl 1 and 2): Same lies, different rooms. Same guy, different perfume.

(Verse 1)

(Girl 1)

He walks through the door,

doesn’t look in my eyes

Just the scent of the city

and a trail of lies

Straight to the shower,

let the water run hot

Scrubbing off the secrets

of a life I forgot

Then a "ding" in the dark,

a light on the nightstand

A name I don’t know,

reaching out for his hand

"Had a great time," "Miss you already"

Now my heart’s in my throat

and my hands aren't steady.

(Chorus:)

(Both; Girl 1 and 2)

Is it you?

Is it me?

Who’s the lead in this tragedy?

Are you the 80,

am I just the 20?

He’s playing us both

while he’s spending our money

How dare he divide

what was meant to be whole?

One man, two hearts,

and a piece of his soul

Are you the main?

Or am I the side?

Either way, we’re both taking the ride.

(Verse 2)

(Girl 2)

He just clocked out,

said he’s tired from the grind

But he had enough energy

to leave me behind

Dinner was sweet,

but the dessert was fast

A look in his eyes

like he wanted it to last

Then he’s checking his watch,

says he’s gotta get home

"Got to clean and relax,"

left me here on my own

I waited for the text,

but the silence was loud

So I sent my "I miss you"—

was he under your cloud?

(Chorus)

(Both; Girl 1 and 2)

Is it you?

Is it me?

Who’s the lead in this tragedy?

Are you the 80,

am I just the 20?

He’s playing us both

while he’s spending our money

How dare he divide

what was meant to be whole?

One man, two hearts,

and a piece of his soul

Are you the main?

Or am I the side?

Either way, we’re both taking the ride.

(Bridge: Girl 1, Girl 2, Both)

(Girl 1): I’m the one

washing the scent off his skin

(Girl 2): I’m the one

letting the mystery in

(Girl 1): You got the passion,

I got the routine

(Girl 2): But we’re both just ghosts

in his twisted machine

(Both; Girl 1 and 2) We deserve better

than a half-hearted man

Let’s set the fire

and wreck his master plan.

(Guitar/Synth Solo - Upbeat and melodic)

(Chorus)

(Both; Girl 1 and 2)

Is it you?

Is it me?

Who’s the lead in this tragedy?

Are you the 80,

am I just the 20?

He’s playing us both

while he’s spending our money

How dare he divide

what was meant to be whole?

One man, two hearts,

and a piece of his soul

Are you the main?

Or am I the side?

Either way, we’re both taking the ride.

(Outro)

(Girl 1): She's still in the shower...

(Girl 2): She's still checking her phone...

(Both; Girl 1 and 2): But after tonight, she’s sleeping alone.

(Guitar fades out with a final "notification" sound effect)
