⋆˚࿔🍬⋆˙⟡ sweet nothing

verse 1

hand me a crumpled candy packet

tell me pick which i'd like best

left out three options

settled with whatever was left

and i can work with the fewer choices

never known to make it into a problem

as long as it's sweet, i'll call it a favorite

mask the displease at the lacking flavor

Pre-Chorus

sugar on my tongue, but the taste is wearing thin

tell me it's still love, and i'll believe it again

chorus

sweet nothing

kiss me with your sweet poison

sweep up all my sweet lovin'

bury me beneath roses

sweet boy then

turned up with your teeth sharpened

bit into my sweet lovin'

can i love you, sweet nothing?

post-chorus

(rotting, rotting)

our love is rotten

(rotting, rotting)

sweet mr nothing

(rotting, rotting)

our love is rotten

(rotting, rotting)

sweet mr nothing

verse 2

you'd save the sweetest words for when i'd had enough

then leave me picking through the crumbs of what you called love

i'd tell myself the sugar made the bitterness worthwhile

and wear the taste of almost like it'd kept me satisfied

Pre-Chorus

sugar on my tongue, but the taste is wearing thin

tell me it's still love, and i'll believe it again

chorus

sweet nothing

kiss me with your sweet poison

sweep up all my sweet lovin'

bury me beneath roses

sweet boy then

turned up with your teeth sharpened

bit into my sweet lovin'

can i love you, sweet nothing?

post-chorus

(rotting, rotting)

our love is rotten

(rotting, rotting)

sweet mr nothing

(rotting, rotting)

our love is rotten

(rotting, rotting)

sweet mr nothing

breakdown/outro

dissolve, dissolve

let-let our love fall

dissolve, dissolve

you can't have it all

dissolve, dissolve

let-let our love fall

dissolve, dissolve

left with nothing at all
