ALTERNATE UNIVERSE - The Rake

[Verse 1]

Collateral damage, you were my superhero

Then you became savage, fucking Emperor Nero

I was in peril, a damsel in distress

Some syntax error, when you said to get undressed

And I didn't want to, you stopped the elevator

Butterflies turned cruel, you stepped out and said, "Later"

I was in shambles

"Fuck, all men are the same"

I don't remember a time when a man wasn't this way

[Pre-chorus]

And I don't wanna give in

Just to make you stay

'Cause I'm a whore for more of your attention, babe

And I don't wanna say it

Just to let you know

Because I see the gleam of lost potential, oh

Still flickering continuously

557Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4eOpNGHCf

[Chorus]

But at the end of the day

You're just another name

That I'll never forget

Because I always remember the rake

[Verse 2]

I don't wanna repeat the origins of trauma (Nah, nah)

So just be accepting when I tell you kindergarten, blah, blah

I spew all these facts, and it's like you don't understand

So I just don't hold back, when I receive no respect

When you're persistent, ignorant to what happened to me in the past

[Pre-chorus]

But I don't wanna give up

On what we could be

'Cause I'm a slut for stuff like your said "true love", baby

[Chorus]

And at the end of the day

You're just another name

That I'll never forget

Because I always remember the rake

And at the end of the night

You're just another guy

That I used to orbit

Because I thought I'd find love, or at least come close to it

[Bridge]

You don't remember the good ones, but the bad ones get stuck in your head

The impressions they left

The last words that they said

You don't remember the ones caught, but the trust falls that led to your death

Felt heavier than lead

Funnel into his bed

[Pre-chorus]

And I don't wanna give in

Just to make you stay

'Cause I'm a whore for more of your attention, babe

And I don't wanna say it

Just to let you know

Because I see the gleam of lost potential, oh

Still flickering continuously

[Chorus]

And at the end of the day

You're just another name

That I'll never forget

Because I always remember the rake

And at the end of the night

You're just another guy

That I used to orbit

Because I thought I'd find love, or at least get close to it

[Outro]

And at the end of the world

You're just another man that caused all this hurt
