Johnée
Velvet Rope
[Verse 1]
You tried on me like you try to find a comfort position in bed
After you test all the parts, especially my heart
You decided to stay awake (Mm)
It was love, it was madness
I heard you were having an affair
I had to see it with my eyes to believe and when I finally did
I just couldn't believe it yet

[Pre-Chorus]
I never buy sweet talk on bitter mouths
I know you'd always say sorry in a postcard with glitter on
But I can't sugarcoat your fucked up attitudes no more

[Chorus]
I gotta velvet rope, rope, rope
Out of this
This dream ain't feeling just, just, just
Like it used to me
Didn't you know that I'm singular?
You can't find me in a apple tree
I gotta velvet rope, rope, rope out of this
Rope out of this

[Verse 2]
Deep down I knew I couldn't trust you
It was a little bit strange when you said
''I think it's early for me to be in a relationship''
But then a week after, you dated him (Seriously?)
It was love, it was nothing
I thought I had you locked down
You said I was dramatic, and for a fact I am but now
He's also gone and you're alone
But you don't get to blow my phone up
Thinking I would stick around

[Pre-Chorus]
I never buy sweet talk on bitter mouths
I know you'd always say sorry in a postcard with glitter on
But I can't sugarcoat your fucked up attitudes no more

[Chorus]
I gotta velvet rope, rope, rope
Out of this (I gotta velvet rope, yeah)
This dream ain't feeling just, just, just
Like it used to me (It ain't just so sweet)
Didn't you know that I'm singular?
You can't find me in a apple tree
I gotta velvet rope, rope, rope
Out of this

[Bridge]
I'm having thoughts I want to share
I gotta blow off some steam
You've been messing with my self-esteem
I used to care too much, but now I don't give a fuck
I'm tired of comparing myself to him

[Chorus]
I gotta velvet rope, rope, rope
Out of this (I gotta velvet rope, yeah)
This dream ain't feeling just, just, just
Like it used to me (It ain't just so sweet)
You should've known that I am singular
And you wouldn't find me in a apple tree (I'm sure you didn't)
Now you can taste karma right of its lips
'Cause I gotta velvet rope, rope
Rope out of this
