Lyrics: 

I built a life that feels like mine
Coffee on the counter, sunlight through the blinds
Polaroids stacked in an old shoebox
I hum my secrets to the ticking of the clocks

If you walk in, don’t blur my flame
Show me you can move in time with the life I’ve made, with the life I’ve made

I’ve got everything I ever need
A steady heart, the sky to breathe
So if you want my love, you’ve gotta prove
That the fire burns brighter with me and you

I’m not waiting, I’m not blind
I’m already whole, I’m already fine
If you want my time, make me believe
You’re worth the world I choose to keep

I’ve had the wrong ones drag me down
Cut my edges just to watch me drown
July skies bruised with their empty fights
But I’d rather lose than love on borrowed light

Don’t reach for me with a counterfeit touch
I don’t fall for almost, I don’t fall for enough

I’ve got everything I ever need
A steady heart, the sky to breathe
So if you want my love, you’ve gotta prove
That the fire burns brighter with me and you

I’m not waiting, I’m not blind
I’m already whole, I’m already fine
If you want my time, make me believe
You’re worth the world I choose to keep

Don’t sell me fairytales, don’t feed me lies
I’ve carved my freedom out of sleepless nights
Neon signs flicker, I’ve walked the roads 
And I won’t trade my peace just to feel less alone 

If you can meet me where I stand
If you can hold the storm in my two hands
Then maybe I’ll let you in, let you in

I’ve got everything I ever need
A steady heart, the sky to breathe
So if you want my love, you’ve gotta prove
That the fire burns brighter with me and you

I’m not waiting, I’m not blind
I’m already whole, I’m already fine
If you want my time, make me believe
You’re worth the life I choose to lead
ohhh, ‘cause I’ve already got everything I need

GIRL MATH

everything I need

Lyrics:

[Verse 1]

Your hand on the wheel, heart on my sleeve
You said the night felt like a movie scene
Didn’t kiss me, didn’t have to
I was already rewinding every look from you

Streetlights caught on your collarbone
I said drive safe but I meant don’t go
You smiled like you already knew
That I’d be writing love songs about you

[Pre-Chorus]

So text me when you get home
I’ll be tracing stars on my pillowcase
Wondering if your heart skipped too
When I leaned in close and almost said

[Chorus]

Text me when you get home
So I know I’m not alone in this feeling tonight
You don’t have to say much
Just that you’re mine
Three little words or a ‘made it, babe’ line
Cos I’m already yours, and it’s been a while
So text me when you get home so I can smile

[Verse 2]

You don’t rush the magic, you let it ache
Like slow honey dripping from a heartbreak
I’ve known boys, but none like you
Golden and quiet and painfully true

You don’t chase forever, you hold the now
The kind of love you whisper out loud
And I’m not scared, I’m not even shy
This feels like falling with open eyes

[Pre-Chorus]

So text me when you get home
I’ll be wrapped in your name like a song
Still playing back the way you said
“Tonight felt right” like nothing’s wrong

[Chorus]

Text me when you get home
So I know I’m not alone in this feeling tonight
You don’t have to say much
Just that you’re mine
Three little words or a ‘made it, babe’ line
Cos I’m already yours, and it’s been a while
So text me when you get home so I can smile

[Bridge]

And maybe this is nothing
Or maybe it’s the start
But when your name lights up my phone
It’s fireworks behind my heart

[Chorus]

Text me when you get home
So I know I’m not alone in this feeling tonight
You don’t have to say much
Just that you’re mine
Three little words or a ‘made it, babe’ line
Cos I’m already yours, and it’s been a while
So text me when you get home so I can smile

[Outro]

And I’ll save the message like a song I adore
Reread it once, then maybe ten times more
You said “Only if it’ll make you smile” 
Boy, I’m smiling… stay for a while
Text me when you get home

text me when you get home

Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
She came crowned in violet bruises,
Too fragile for the room they built.
They swore she was harmless,
But her smile dripped with guilt.

Her laugh was a loaded weapon,
Her throat was a holy grave.
They named her the daughter of daylight,
But the night was the one she obeyed.

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, they tried to tie her down,
Oh, but she just spun around.

[Chorus]
Persephone, Persephone,
Crown of flowers, sharp as a spell.
They tried to chain her, tried to contain her,
But she only learned to leave well.
Persephone, Persephone
She smiles and the ground gives way,
Time itself bends to her melody,
And that’s all she’ll ever be, 
Persephone.

[Verse 2]
Lips like pomegranate poison,
Silence like a castle of stone.
She dances through gardens and graveyards,
But she’s never called one home.

She moves like sunlight in the shadows,
Eyes that split your mind in two.
They whispered she’d never be tamed, 
And baby, they were right, it’s true.

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, they tried to tie her down,
Oh, but she just spun around.

[Chorus]
Persephone, Persephone,
Crown of flowers, sharp as a spell.
They tried to chain her, tried to contain her,
But she only learned to leave well.
Persephone, Persephone
She smiles and the ground gives way,
Time itself bends to her melody,
And that’s all she’ll ever be, 
Persephone.

[Bridge]
Maybe she breaks what she touches,
Maybe she burns what she keeps.
Queen of chaos, crown of ruin,
She laughs while the city sleeps.

[Chorus]
Persephone, Persephone,
Crown of flowers, sharp as a spell.
They tried to chain her, tried to contain her,
But she only learned to leave well.
Persephone, Persephone
She smiles and the ground gives way,
Time itself bends to her melody,
And that’s all she’ll ever be
Persephone, Persephone

Persephone

Lyrics:

Verse 1
One shot, slow sip, the lights dim low
Your shadow on the wall moves where I go
I swear it’s nothing, just the fire in the glass
Whispers of you linger, I can’t make them pass

Pre-Chorus
Blame the burn, blame the sting
Blame the way your touch makes my heart spin
Every word I breathe, it’s half a truth
Even if it burns, even if it proves

Chorus
Tequila told me I want you too close
Tequila told me, can’t fight what I chose
Can’t blame the fire running wild in my veins
If it’s reckless desire, I’ll blame it again
Tequila told me, oh, tequila told me
Tequila told me, yeah, tequila told me

Verse 2
Dance in the shadows, feel the heat collide
Half of me is cautious, half of me won’t hide
I told myself I’m over your kind
Tequila whispers, girl, you’re lying blind

Pre-Chorus
Blame the burn, blame the sting
Blame the way your touch makes my heart spin
Every word I breathe, it’s half a truth
Even if it burns, even if it proves

Chorus
Tequila told me I want you too close
Tequila told me, can’t fight what I chose
Can’t blame the fire running wild in my veins
If it’s reckless desire, I’ll blame it again
Tequila told me, oh, tequila told me
Tequila told me, yeah, tequila told me

Bridge
Maybe tomorrow I’ll pretend it’s gone
Maybe I’ll laugh at the pull I’m drawn
But tonight, confession drips from my skin
If it’s the tequila, I’ll let it begin

Outro
Tequila told me I want you too close
Tequila told me, can’t fight what I chose
Can’t blame the fire running wild in my veins
If it’s reckless desire, I’ll blame it again
Tequila told me, oh, tequila told me
Tequila told me, yeah, tequila told me

drunken confessions

Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
We said it’s nothing, just a night in the dark
A little thrill, a spark, no one’s keeping a heart
But you linger in the hallway of my mind
And I promised myself I’d leave it behind

[Pre-Chorus]
Laugh it off, call it fate
We’re both too stubborn to walk away
Every smile comes with a scar we don’t name
And every kiss plays a dangerous game

[Chorus]
Casual casualties, we’re falling anyway
Thought it was harmless, but the night has its say
Hearts on fire, playing with matches we steal
Casual casualties, but we’re too wild to heal
Casual casualties, hearts breaking slow
Try to stay cool, but the truth always shows
Living our fallacies, casual casualties

[Verse 2]
You call at midnight, say “don’t read too much”
But your words are poison, your charm’s a crutch
I swear I’m fine, I keep it light
But I’m already haunted by our last fight

[Pre-Chorus]
Laugh it off, call it fate
We’re both too stubborn to walk away
Every smile comes with a scar we don’t name
And every kiss plays a dangerous game

[Chorus]
Casual casualties, we’re falling anyway
Thought it was harmless, but the night has its say
Hearts on fire, playing with matches we steal
Casual casualties, but we’re too wild to heal
Casual casualties, hearts breaking slow
Try to stay cool, but the truth always shows
Living our fallacies, casual casualties

[Bridge]
Maybe tomorrow we’ll wake, pretend it’s fine
Maybe tomorrow we’ll draw a different line
But tonight we’re reckless, running from the truth
Pretending forever like we’re bulletproof

[Outro]
Casual casualties, we’re falling anyway
Thought it was harmless, but the night has its say
Hearts on fire, playing with matches we steal
Casual casualties, but we’re too wild to heal
Casual casualties, hearts breaking slow
Try to stay cool, but the truth always shows
Living our fallacies, casual casualties

casual casualties

Lyrics:

They stage my heartbreak like a headline
Scroll through my past like it’s all online
But I’m out here golden, barefoot in the daylight
While they’re stuck rehearsing rumors every midnight

I don’t chase ghosts, I don’t wear your shame
If the story’s crooked, then you signed your name

So go touch some grass, get your facts straight
I’m living my life, I don’t need your debate
Kiss my ass while you’re at it, it’s free of charge
Your gossip’s weak, I’m living large
Go touch some grass, go touch some grass

Confetti in kitchens, champagne in a coffee cup
Dancing with freedom, no one to interrupt
You think you know me, a footnote in your verse
But my truth’s a novel, your version’s rehearsed

I’m untouchable, lit like a marquee sign
Your shade’s a candle, flickering against mine

So go touch some grass, get your facts straight
I’m living my life, I don’t need your debate
Kiss my ass while you’re at it, it’s free of charge
Your gossip’s weak, I’m living large
Go touch some grass, go touch some grass

Your stage is small, and I won’t buy a ticket
If my name’s in your mouth, then at least you won’t miss it
History remembers the truth, not the spin
So write your fan-fiction, the joke’s wearing thin

Go touch some grass, get your facts straight
I’m living my life, I don’t need your debate
Kiss my ass while you’re at it, it’s free of charge
Your gossip’s weak, I’m living large
Go touch some grass, go touch some grass

go touch grass

Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
Another bio with a dog in the frame,
Says he’s six foot, but the math looks strange.
He’s “CEO of vibes” with a podcast too,
I already know I’ll regret that view.

But it’s Friday night, I’m half a glass in,
Curiosity always wins.
One more chance, roll the dice,
Love or chaos, I don’t mind.

[Chorus]
It’s swipe right for disaster,
Heartbreak a little faster.
Could be Mr. Wrong, or the song I write after.
Oh, this roulette romance 
I keep betting on bad hands.
Yeah, swipe right for disaster
But God, I love the laughter.
Im gonna swipe right for disaster. 

[Verse 2]
Met a banker who was broke in disguise,
A world traveler who never caught flights.
Guy with gym pics, but his jokes don’t land,
Another comedian with no punchline plan.

But the glow of the screen is a siren call,
Risking sanity for the thrill of it all.
Maybe heartbreak’s my type tonight,
At least the chaos feels alive.

[Chorus]
It’s swipe right for disaster,
Heartbreak a little faster.
Could be Mr. Wrong, or the song I write after.
Oh, this roulette romance 
I keep betting on bad hands.
Yeah, swipe right for disaster 
But God, I love the laughter.
Im gonna swipe right for disaster. 

[Bridge]
If I’m falling, at least it’s fun,
Telling stories when the night is done.
Red flags, green flags, I lose track,
Still I keep on swiping back.

[Final Chorus]
Swipe right for disaster,
Heartbreak a little faster.
Could be Mr. Wrong, or the song I write after.
This roulette romance 
I keep betting on bad hands.
Yeah, swipe right for disaster, 
Cause maybe I’m the master.
Gonna swipe right for disaster.

swipe right for disaster

Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
Curtains fell, but I’m still humming
Your name tastes sweet, but I keep running
Every song feels like déjà vu
And every ending sounds like you

Is it wrong that I don’t want it over?
Applause fades, but the ache grows bolder
Do I bow, or do I begin?
Tell me, are we circling again?

[Chorus]
Encore, encore, the lights go dim
It’s you again, it’s you again
Do I crave the fire, or the ashes left?
Is it love, or just the echo in my chest?
Encore, encore, the crowd leans in
It’s you again, it’s you again

[Verse 2]
Your silhouette in every spotlight
Shadow dancing in my quiet midnight
I swore the script was finally through
But I can’t stop improvising you

Maybe it’s the thrill of pretending
Or the fear of something else beginning
A final kiss, or the start of a win
Tell me, are we circling again?

[Chorus]
Encore, encore, the lights go dim
It’s you again, it’s you again
Do I crave the fire, or the ashes left?
Is it love, or just the echo in my chest?
Encore, encore, the crowd leans in
It’s you again, it’s you again

[Bridge]
Am I haunted, or am I choosing?
Is it passion, or fear of losing?
I can’t tell if it’s fate or a trick of the stage
But I want one more page…

[Chorus]

Encore, encore, the lights go dim
It’s you again, it’s you again
Do I crave the fire, or the ashes left?
Is it love, or just the echo in my chest?
Encore, encore, the crowd leans in
It’s you again, it’s you again
It’s you again, it’s you again

encore

Lyrics:

Verse 1
He swears he’s honest, but his alibis crack
Every polished story’s got a seam in the back
If he’s dealing dirty, then I’ll raise the stakes
Match him move for move with the mess he makes

If you twist the rules, I’ll redraw the line
Watch me take your game and make it mine

Chorus
I can be as shallow, as shallow, as shallow as a man
Lie a little louder, cheat a little prouder, do it better than he can
I can be as shallow, as shallow, as shallow as a man
If he can break a heart, I can break it harder, catch me if you can
I can be as shallow, as shallow, as shallow as a man

Verse 2
He loves the thrill but he dodges the prize
Calls it freedom when it’s just disguise
I can vanish quicker, leave a colder trace
Serve the same venom, but with better taste

If you crown it power, I’ll wear it loud
Your tricks look small when I play them proud

Chorus 
I can be as shallow, as shallow, as shallow as a man
Lie a little louder, cheat a little prouder, do it better than he can
I can be as shallow, as shallow, as shallow as a man
If he can break a heart, I can break it harder, catch me if you can
I can be as shallow, as shallow, as shallow as a man

Bridge
You thought deception made you untouchable
But every lie you told was instructional
If love’s a weapon, I’ve built my own
Now watch me strike in a sharper tone

I’ll get with your best friend, your dad too
Whatever you brag, I’ll out-play and outdo
Your favorite athlete, your roommate, no shame
I’ll make out with your boss just to ruin your day

Chorus
I can be as shallow, as shallow, as shallow as a man
Lie a little louder, cheat a little prouder, do it better than he can
I can be as shallow, as shallow, as shallow as a man
If he can break a heart, I can break it harder, catch me if you can
I can be as shallow, as shallow, as shallow as a man

as shallow as a man

Lyrics:

Verse 1:
You recycle your jokes on a different screen
She doesn’t know they were wasted on me
You were a headline, chasing attention
I was the fine print you failed to mention

Your jacket’s still hanging behind the door
Guess you won’t be needing it anymore
Funny how leaving revealed the truth
The best thing you did was let me lose you

Chorus:
Everybody’s ex, that’s your legacy
A cautionary tale, not a memory
You thought you’d haunt me, thought I’d collapse
But you’re just a ghost with a disappearing act
Everybody’s ex, nothing profound
You’re the story they’ve all heard going around

Verse 2:
You rehearsed every word like a well-worn line
But the spotlight fades, and the script is mine
Kept score quietly, while you performed
Now you’re a footnote, and I’ve been reformed

Coffee went cold on the kitchen shelf
You never noticed, too wrapped in yourself
History’s pages don’t keep your place
Your chapter closed without a trace

Chorus:
Everybody’s ex, that’s your legacy
A cautionary tale, not a memory
You thought you’d haunt me, thought I’d collapse
But you’re just a ghost with a disappearing act
Everybody’s ex, nothing profound
You’re the story they’ve all heard going around

Bridge:
One day you’ll wonder why no one stays
Replaying the past like a tired cliché
But the ending was written, it’s all too clear
You lost the plot the moment you were here

Chorus:
Everybody’s ex, that’s your legacy
A cautionary tale, not a memory
You thought you’d haunt me, thought I’d collapse
But you’re just a ghost with a disappearing act
Everybody’s ex, that’s all you’ll be
And the best part is it’s not up to me

everybody’s ex

Lyrics:

Cigarette lips, red wine stain
They swear they saw us leaving through the fire escape
Tongues like knives in the midnight air
But baby, I don’t mind if they all just stare

They’re trading secrets under neon lights
Whispers chase us through the restless nights
If they’re gonna spin the city around
Might as well watch us burn it down

Rumors with benefits, let it burn slow
Bodies on headlines, everyone knows
If they’re talking anyway, let’s give them the proof
Rumors with benefits, me and you

Flashbulb sin in a Polaroid frame
Blurred-out faces but they know our names
Nothing tastes sweeter than a dirty lie
So kiss me harder when the cameras find us

They’re trading secrets under neon lights
Whispers chase us through the restless nights
If they’re gonna spin the city around
Might as well watch us burn it down

Rumors with benefits, let it burn slow
Bodies on headlines, everyone knows
If they’re talking anyway, let’s give them the proof
Rumors with benefits, me and you

Whisper it, scream it, I don’t care
Your hands on my throat and the world out there
Tell me a secret they can’t resist
Every rumor starts with a kiss

Rumors… rumors…
Benefits… benefits…
Write it in blood, let the city confess
Rumors with benefits

Rumors with benefits, let it burn slow
Bodies on headlines, everyone knows
If they’re talking anyway, let’s give them the proof
Rumors with benefits… me and you

rumors with benefit

I write like I’m keeping a diary with beats and melodies.
