𝐅𝐫𝐢𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝟏𝟑𝐭𝐡 ( 𝒎𝒚 𝒔𝒐𝒏𝒈𝒔 '𝒇𝒓𝒐𝒎 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒗𝒂𝒖𝒍𝒕')

Drawing Board

Written: Sometime mid/late March 2024

Genre: Haunting pop w/ minor indie and alt vibes ( like a mix of making the bed and traitor by Olivia Rodrigo!! )

1ST VERSE:

Crying myself to sleep ( again)

Streaming love is embarrassing on repeat ( again )

Hesitant to make the wrong move

I'm careful to watch my words

Counter clockwise to prove

That I would risk it all for you

PRE-CHORUS:

Never have I been in love and heartbroken at the same time

Darling, I don't want to hurt anymore

Leading right up to the score

CHORUS:

I'm heading right back to the drawing board

You're always mine but I'm never yours

You really know how to whip up a storm

Yet you'll never cut to the core

No, it's not fair that you're always mine but I'm never yours

I've already quit keeping score

I'm heading right back to the drawing board

( the drawing board )

2ND VERSE:

My feelings are on a rollercoaster ride

How do I get off? Tell me where to sign

Cause I swear this is the very last time

I tag along for a love meant to echo demise

I don't know how to feel anymore

It's this love I'll lose that'll always illuse

And that's not a fair thing for you to do

When I'm so fucking in love with you

So rip the bandage and just let me go, let me go

CHORUS:

I'm heading right back to the drawing board

You're always mine but I'm never yours

You really know how to whip up a storm

Yet you'll never cut to the core

No, it's not fair that you're always mine but I'm never yours

I've already quit keeping score

I'm heading right back to the drawing board

( the drawing board )

BRIDGE:

Brief sketches of what we could be

But there's no true way of ever knowing

It's just another first draft

That isn't yet an elite craft

When you'll never be where I'm at

This love was no Louvre

This love was no work of art

You've painted me sad, splattered my heart

I'm not allowed to be mad about that

So I'll just set my love to restart

CHORUS:

I'm heading right back to the drawing board

You're always mine but I'm never yours

You really know how to whip up a storm

Yet you'll never cut to the core

No, it's not fair that you're always mine but I'm never yours

I've already quit keeping score

I'm heading right back to the drawing board
